  • The Dakota Fairy Tales of L. Frank Baum
    Copyright © 2000 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. The Dakota Fairy Tales of La Frank Baum Mark I. West L, Frank Baum lived in Aberdeen, South Dakota, from Sep- tember 1888 until April 1891. During this period, he ran a store called Baum's Bazaar for a little over a year, and when that enterprise failed, he tried his hand at publishing a weekly newspaper named the Aberdeen Saturday Pioneer. Baum man- aged to keep the paper going until March 1891, but in the end, it, too, proved to be a financial failure. Feeling defeated, Baum left Aberdeen that April and moved to Chicago, where he even- tually achieved fame as a children's author. Even though Baum had little success as an Aberdeen businessman, the experiences he gained while living on the Dakota prairie provided him with material and insights that he would later draw upon in his sto- ries. The literary critics and biographers who have studied Baum are not in complete agreement as to how his Dakota years influenced his writings. Some critics argue that the opening scenes in The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900), which Baum places in Kansas, are really set in South Dakota. Michael Patrick Hearn takes this position in The Annotated Wizard ofOz, stat- ing that these scenes "are largely Baum's recollections of the great gray prairie of the Dakota Territory (now South Dakota)."' The historian Nancy Tystad Koupal takes a somewhat different 1. Hearn, Introduction, Notes, and Bibliography to Tbe Annotated Wizard of Oz York: Clarkson N.
