Carol Jean Frost's early passion for reading and history took her to graduate studies at Brown University where she discovered Charles Nordhoff, an influential journalist and activist of the late 1800s. In spite of myriad debilitating health problems, she conducted extensive research and family interviews, earned her PhD in American Civilization, and created this remarkable and important volume.
