Book: In Exile And Other Stories Mary Hallock Foote (1847-1938) journeyed west with her husband in 1876, where he found employment in the mining industry and she pursued her interests in writing and illustration. Penning many articles and short stories about the western lands, Mary met with immediate success, and from the mid 1870s to the first World War, she remained one of the most popular writers and illustrators in the country. She is considered an important Idaho and California regionalist writer. Wallace Stegner's Pulitzer Prize-winning 1971 novel Angle of Repose is loosely based on Mary Hallock Foote's life, which quotes passages from her letters.
