Overview
The remarkable women who helped settle the West achieved much more than marrying and raising children. They had to farm the land, build houses, and hunt for food. Over time, these women began testing the boundaries of social acceptability. They became doctors, lawyers, adventurers, and entertainers. Through women such as Annie Oakley, Calamity Jane, and the Unsinkable Molly Brown, this book reveals the West through the eyes of the women who tamed it.Book Details
