About this title

Synopsis

Ruth Laughlin depicts one woman s fight for power and respect in a world dominated by men in 1830s Santa Fe, where the musty pomp of fading Spain mingled with the acrid smell and gusty language of buffalo hunters, gringo traders, gamblers, caballeros, and crooked politicians.

Review

"A book to be read with excitement and delight . . . a tale inherently loaded with incident and suspense...an innately gorgeous story, excellently told."—Oliver La Farge (Oliver La Farge)
