Wild West Women: Travellers, Adventurers and Rebels

A wonderful historical book filled with stories of strong women that were imaginative, creative and determined long before the term 'women's lib' was invented. I'm sure that the Victorian Age turned out quiet, petite females, who took whatever life handed them; not so these women who followed their dreams and were able to accomplish much of what they set out to do. Some of the women were rough and tumble, raucous, maybe some even 'shady ladies.' But the underlying element that bound them together to make history and become subjects of this book, was their independence, touch of rebellion, and strength. No pancies or shrinking violets here - a good read. I liked it.
