Excellent read for those into history

I loved this as I am into Deadwood history. Well done and easy to read. The author brought the Wild West alive!!

No Editor?

The grammar errors and typos were distracting.. The story itself was okay, they just should have proofread the book first.

It's only nine pages so you can read this quickly. I wish there were more to it. Tom hits the highlights of her life but doesn't delve into the details. It'd be nice if this were a historical fiction piece with character development thrown in, but it is more like an expanded Wikipedia page.

Madam Dora DuFran-Cat House Queen of Deadwood Gulch

Interesting historical data, however, it would have made a better novel. It took only a few minutes to read, was hoping for something worth sinking my teeth into.
