Full Description
Susan Fenimore Cooper, the daughter of James Fenimore Cooper, was a philanthropist who helped young girls and boys through an orphanage in Cooperstown, New York. While she worked with these disadvantage children, she wrote one of American's earliest examples of naturist writing. Forgotten for many years, recent discoveries have made her book, Rural Hours, a forgotten gem of classic nature writing.
