Women Of The West (Library of the American West) - Softcover
A myth-shattering look at the women who helped to settle the West, told through their own words and illustrated with 150 period photographs. This is American history, not as it was romanticized, but as it was lived. "An authentic, refreshing, and even inspiring view of life on the frontier."--San Francisco Chronicle. Illustrations.
