About This Item
~~NON-PERSONAL INSCRIPTION BY AUTHOR ON TITLE PAGE~~ Kansas City Star Books (Stated 1st Edition, 2007). Softcover. Clean and unmarked, binding tight. Colors on cover bright.
ABOUT THE BOOK: This little-known book has the complete, well-researched story of William Allen White, the "Sage of Emporia," written for the lay reader. The author, Beverly Olson Buller, is a former librarian from Winfield, Kansas, and has mined all the resources on White in the state. A fresh group of photos, many from the White archives at Emporia State University, give the book visual strength. The White story has never been better told. Amazon review.
