Profiles of ten courageous women who helped shape history are told in this inspiring and entertaining book. These high spirited women left conventional roles behind, becoming America's early feminists.
Some were bold and rebellious like Belle Starr and Ann Eliza Young. Many, such as Sarah Winnemucca and Abigail Duniway were dedicated to their causes; others like Jessie Benton Fremont, to the people they loved. Demanding acceptance on their own terms, they proudly took their place in history beside the men of hte untamed West.
Descriptive text accompanied by period photographs provide glimpses of these strong women and the people they touched as they blazed new trails for women of the 20th century.
High Spirited Women of the West is Anne Seagraves' third book in a series of stories about Western women.
CONDITION: Used with light to moderate overall wear to cover. No writing within. Illustrated generously with b&w photos. 174 pages.
