Title: Conversations with Wallace Stegner on Western history and literature
Description: "Friend and scholar Richard W. Etulain asks thoughtful and challenging questions concerning Stegner's early years and first writings, his first major novels and the problem of autobiography versus invention, his experiences with Mormon culture, the Western novelist as historian and the Western historian as literary artist, Angle of Repose as history and fiction, and the American West as frontier, as region, and as wilderness. These Conversations conclude with a discussion of unfinished tasks not only in the writing of history and literature, but in planning for the very survival of the region in the future."--Book jacket.
