The author combines the stories of her youth with historical fact to create rich and diverse narratives, telling the story of the people who have shaped the land.
Anyone who loves the west will benefit from this book. It is filled with information and so well written. I am 4th generation Montanan and love my state. This book filled my heart, I love history, I love Montana History and wish this was the text book for Montana History in schools. So much information but so well written and enjoyable.
Highly recommend! I will loan this out BUT will always want a copy on my book shelf. Chapter 7, is so wonderful and spoke so openly to me! Will look for more of Carlene Cross's work!
