About Louise Dickinson Rich

Louise Dickinson Rich was a writer known for fiction and non-fiction works about the New England region of the United States, particularly Massachusetts and Maine. Her best-known work was her first book, the autobiographical We Took to the Woods (1942), set in the 1930s when she and husband Ralph, and her friend and hired help Gerrish, lived in a remote cabin near Umbagog Lake. It was described as "a witty account of a Thoreau-like existence in a wilderness home."
