Description

Dear Mad'm is the autobiographical story of Stella Walthall Patterson of her experience living alone, after age 80, with her dog Vicki on her mining claim on the Klamath River in the Siskiyou Mountains, near Happy Camp, California. She had until then lived a comfortable life in San Francisco, as a teacher, writer, and artist, but when her doctor told her she had "young legs" and good health, she vowed to spend one full year on her remote mining claim for solitude to write. Instead, she met interesting and endearing small-town characters and faced the challenges of rustic living-the story she tells humorously in Dear Mad'm. Her daily world, her zestful manner, her jaunty humor, and her fresh and original observations are detailed here with clarity and directness. Not surprisingly, at the end of her year, on her 81st birthday, she decided to continue this good life close to the soil, where she found that the people she needed also needed her.

About the Author
Patterson, Stella Walthall: - "Stella Walthall Patterson (October 14, 1866 - December 23, 1955), orphaned at seven, led a life of adventure and accomplishments as a teacher, artist, pianist, wife, mother, adventurer, and above all a writer and storyteller. She attended Mills College in Oakland, California, whose president later said Mrs. Patterson is the closest thing to a feminine Thoreau that this country has produced. She also went to Paris to study painting. At age 80, after being told by her doctor she had young legs, she vowed to spend one full year on her remote mining claim near Happy Camp, California for solitude to write. Instead, she met interesting small-town characters and faced the challenges of wildland living along the Klamath River in the Siskiyou Mountains-the story she tells humorously in Dear Mad'm."
