The article represents the creative personality of an American writer Mary Hunter Austin whose creative activity was connected with the southwest of the USA.

Special attention is given to the analysis of a problematic-subject complex and the descriptive row of Austin's well-known book «The Land of Little Rain». The work is characterized by the unity of the artistic and publicistic principles the author's stile is famous for. The author pays special attention to her creative connections with Jack London as well.
