Overall, I really enjoyed this story of the old west told from the perspective of a plucky female. Although this was definitely not up to the standards of McMurtry's "Lonesome Dove" series, it was still full of action, humor, and fun. Nellie Courtright was a memorable character and her exploits which involved a cavalcade of Western legends including George Custer, Wild Bill Hickock, Buffalo Bill, and the Earps was always interesting. I would overall give this one a mild recommendation.
