Summary

"Robert Frost observed in his wife, Elinor, a desire to live 'a life that goes rather poetically.' The same could be said of many members of the Frost family, over several generations. In [this book], Frost's granddaughter, Lesley Lee Francis, combines ... personal memories and ... research to create a portrait of Frost and the women, including herself, whose lives he touched"--Dust jacket flap
