520 1 |a "Elise Waerenskjold is known to fans of Texas women writers as "the lady with the pen," from the title of a book of her writings. A forward-looking journalist, she sent letters and articles back to Norway that encouraged others to follow her footsteps to Texas, where a small colony of Norwegian settlers was making a new life alongside - but distinct from - other European immigrants." 
520 8 |a "Undaunted is the first full biography of Waerenskjold during her Texas years, a life story that shows much about Texas, especially in the Norwegian colonies, from 1847 to the end of the nineteenth century. Moreover, it tells the story of a strong and independent thinker who championed women's rights, who was pro-Union and against slavery (though her husband was in the Confederate army and was subsequently murdered in Reconstruction-era violence), and who left an intriguing body of writing about life on the edges of Texas settlement." 
520 8 |a "Charles H. Russell's account of Waerenskjold describes not only her influence among her countrymen but also her own life, which was a saga of considerable drama itself. Russell offers a clear and entertaining window onto immigrant life in Texas and the issues that shaped women's lives and elicited their talents."--Jacket
