About this title

Synopsis

Stories about Calamity Jane have fascinated readers for generations. This book, one of the first authoritative factual sources, separates the mythical, romanticized Calamity depicted in dime novels and Hollywood films from the real, flesh-and-blood woman. After thirty-five years, it is back in print with new scholarship to place it in historical perspective and re-examine the legend.

From the Back Cover

Still the most authoritative factual source, this book separates the romanticized Calamity depicted in dime novels and Hollywood films from the real, flesh-and-blood woman.
