Book excerpt: "[This book] recounts the literary career of Alice Hegan Rice and her poet husband, Cale, in the context of the other writers in Louisville during the first two decades of the twentieth century. It tracks the Rices' exotic travels, including their two trips around the world, and includes their encounters with such well-known fellow writers as Mark Twain, Edith Wharton, Theodore Roosevelt, Amy Lowell, and Ida Tarbell. Structured on the chronology of Alice's publication history, each chapter narrates a segment of the author's life and contrasts Alice's book published in that period with one or more bestsellers of the same time"--Publisher's website.
