Clean, tight, unmarked; light wear to upper front inside corner; otherwise spine straight and uncreased; appears unread; Imaginative, determined, often raucous and sometimes raunchy, women in the wilds did what they wanted to do. They ran traplines, hotels and bawdy houses, prospected for gold, lived in the wilderness, and married as many times as they wanted or not at all. Rosemary Neering tells the stories of the strength, independence and sheer determination of women such as Lillian Alling, who tried to walk home to Russia; and Evelyn Penrose, who divined for water, oil and criminal tendencies. Madam, prospector, writer, each of these amazing individuals lived a life that challenged the rules most women lived by.
