Her narrative, UNBROKEN CIRCLE, extends from before the Civil War through the Modern Revolution and the First World War - a period of dramatic change in the American experience. Her story is one of rural experience, starting in Arkansas and developing in Texas and New Mexico, when human life was bound to the land in ways no longer possible in similar degree or kind. Mrs. Weaver's recollections are interesting because they help us understand the history of her locales and her time and then some. They help us view that history through the eyes of a woman who had very little - a Southwestern pioneer woman of poverty. Nº de ref. del artículo: 003001
