Grounding his imaginative creations, particularly in his fourteen Oz books, in the reality of his day, Katharine M. Rogers explores the fascinating life and influences of America's greatest writer for children." ; Contents: Early Life Actor Playwright Oil Salesman 1856-1888 -- Frontier Storekeeper and Newspaper Editor 1888-1891 -- Becoming a Writer in Chicago 1891-1900 -- The Wonderful Wizard of Oz 1899-1900 -- Successful Author 19011903 -- Reilly Brittons Star Author 1904-1907 -- Royal Historian of Oz 1907-1910 -- A New Life in California 1909-1914 -- A Writer to the End 1914-1919 -- Baums Achievement The World He Created. ; FINE/FINE.
