I enjoyed reading this book, especially since deals with women and history. It is amazing to me what the women from that time period went through and dealt with during the time frame of 1860-1960. I've also been working on my families genealogy and while none of my ancestors (as far as I'm aware) traveled to the Southwest, this book gives me an idea of what life was like during those years, it gives me a better context than any history class that I've taken!
