I couldn't put this book down! What a splendid narrative about westward pioneering. You will fall in love with Mollie -- a girl full of gumption! This journal covers her teen years and early marriage, the Civil War, the Gold Rush -- fascinating and true glimpse at an important era in American history -- through the eyes of a great, strong, insightful female role model.
