Grandma Moses

Description:

The autobiography of the woman who began to paint when she was 80 and could no longer do fancy work, and who first exhibited her paintings, now known to everybody, at the village drugstore. This book is rather like her pictures in its nostalgic charm and ingeniousness and also shows the resourcefulness and energy that have carried her through 90 years.
