%X Over the course of the last decade, Mary Austin has been recanonized as a regionalist woman writer and as an author in the Thoreauvian tradition of American nature writing. As a regionalist, Austin is thought to represent a female dominated branch of realist writing, given over to a feminist celebration of communal ways of life and ¡±woman¡¯s culture.¡± A representative instance is her inclusion in the Norton Anthology American Women Regionalists (1992).
