Racine, WI: Whitman Publishing Co, 1962. Hardcover. Good. Garris, Norma; Garris, Dan. No Stock Photos! We photograph every item. 138 pages; light edge wear to illustrated boards; corners bumped, some tanning to pages; A national bestseller when first published in 1901, Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch endures today as one of the most memorable literary creations by a Kentucky author. This immensely popular novel spawned several movies (with such stars as W.C. Fields and Shirley Temple), countless stage productions, radio shows, and even dolls. Alice Hegan Rice spins the memorable tale of a family struggling against all odds in the Cabbage Patch, an old Louisville slum "where ramshackle cottages played hop-scotch over the railroad tracks." This hopeful story follows the Wiggs as they face eviction from their dilapidated house and take in two orphanage fugitives.
