Contents Introduction: A Home on the Home Front -- 1916: Finding the "Wonderful Plains" of Texas -- Winter to Spring, 1917: Moments before the War and "Why Men Fight" -- War Declared: "What's the use of art -- if there is war" -- Fall 1917: "We are short about a hundred -- war and bad crops" -- Winter 1917-1918: "It's the flag and I see it flying" -- San Antonio and Waring: "Country life ... is wonderful."
Summary "This work focuses on O'Keeffe's words rather than her images. Von Lintel aims to allow the artist's voice to 'emerge as a powerful witness of her own life, but also of western America in a pivotal moment of its development.' The result is an important new examination of one of our most important artists during a time when she was in the process of discovering her future identity"-- Provided by publisher
