The moment a woman first put her boot in the stirrup and saw the world from the back of a horse, there was no holding her back-for she knew she was a daughter of the West-Free-wheeling ladies on high-stepping horses, daring cowgirls, Wells Fargo women and adventurous schoolmarms brighten these pages. This action-packed book captures the feminine side of the West and tells of the colorful ladies who earned the respect of their male counterparts. Their vibrant, authentic stories portray a time that is gone forever and salute the spirit of those who had the courage to follow their dreams. Anne Seagraves is a highly successful author who writes about yesterday's women with remarkable clarity and honest compassion. Her book Soiled Doves: Prostitution in the Early West has sold over 70,000 copies and has been optioned for a television movie-of-the-week. Seagraves lives in north Idaho, where she is currently working on her eighth book.
