ABOUT THE AUTHOR

This is Eden? is a debut book by Nancy Radcliffe. It is the true story as told to her by her grandmother and mother and as found in family and public records. It is about her grandmother’s struggles on forty acres of lowland in the wilds of Wisconsin. Amazingly, after more than one hundred years, the land is still in the family. Nancy’s grandmother’s love of the land has passed down to her, and she visits it as often as possible. Fifty of Hattie’s descendents gathered to celebrate its’100th anniversary.
