Grandma Moses My Life's History by Anna Mary Robertson, edited by Otto Kallir

 Anna Mary Robertson, aka Grandma Moses, shares her life experiences from her childhood, her married years, her life raising children, and then her life as an artist. Reading how she lived from 1860 and into the 1900s (she lived to be 101!), I loved learning how she and people lived during this vast spread of time. She was industrious and determined. When she was in her seventies, she began to paint!

At points I found the narrative challenging to understand as she would randomly share a story that did not seem to fit with the previous one. Overall, it was an enjoyable, interesting "read".
