As an adult he lived in major cities throughout the United States but visited his birthplace often. In 1922 he received a Pulitzer Prize for A Daughter of the Middle Border, and was also director of the American Academy of Arts and Letters for a number of years. The main story line of this book is that Captain George Curtis leads the Tetong in their resistance to rapacious settlers.
