One of the women who I'd never heard of was Josie Washburn, and that was definitely my favorite story from the book.It was a fun read, and nice and easy to pick up and put down if needed since each of the stories was very nicely contained.I got this advanced galley through Netgalley on behalf Globe Pequot/TwoDot. Each of the stories was done differently, some with the woman's own words and others in an almost fictional story type of prose, while other of the women's stories were presented in the traditional non-fiction sort of way.When I picked it up I thought that it'd contain only more of the well known women of the Old West, but instead there were so many stories of women who I'd never heard of before to go along with the ones that I had like Calamity Jane. It also helps that it was a very well written book too.
I've always loved reading about the Old West (not the Wild West, but the real stories that made up the 'Wild West' stories) and this book is a nice addition to that reading list.
That was definitely an interesting bunch of stories.
