Not a book club edition. Not price clipped (8.95). No owner's name or bookplate. No remainder mark. Author's first novel. The author was born in the Arizona Territory in 1910. From the Dust Jacket: "It is 1910 and Melissa Baker is thirty-one years old. But that January day, riding beside her husband Ben on the wagon headed for the midwife's house, she feels prematurely aged. When they left Texas for the Arizona Territory and settled at the Filaree Ranch, she hoped to find a better life. Instead she has seen her years consumed by drudgery in the barren cattle country known as The Mesa, by the bearing of children to a man she does not love. The child about to be born, she vows, will be the last. But the turns her life will take from this moment are completely unexpected. Filaree is named after the stubborn forage grass that, like Melissa Baker herself, seems to resist and survive, even to thrive, in the harshest seasons. This novel is the story of her attempt, amid the loneliness and hardship of a West that was still a frontier, to keep alive the hope that life has not passed her by. It is a hope personified by Ike Talbott, the foreman of the El Bar Ranch, whose life she saves and whose love sustains her. But Filaree is also a novel about the extraordinary struggles of ordinary people who paid a higher price than we care to remember for opening up a new land. Melissa witnesses the death of a son, the loss of the ranch, and the disintegration of the family that has been her only bulwark. She wanders for years, working as a cook in a mining camp and as a migrant worker in California, in an effort to put her life together. Filaree is a portrait of a woman who strives against great odds to create her destiny and who, in her own way, succeeds." . First Printing of the First Edition. Hardcover.
