Bertie

by Sharron Frink

A half-Cherokee man, an innocent young girl, a grand hotel, and a mining boom town of 1901 all play a part in the story of Bertie, the feisty little woman who struggles to create the life she wants, from the situation she finds herself in. Real places, along with historical events and moving characters, combine to give you a glimpse into the life of one turn-of-the-twentieth-century woman. You'll laugh, cry and fall in love along with Bertie as her little shoulders learn to carry the heavy loads of the women of her era.
