Amazing Girls of Arizona: True Stories of Young Pioneers

by Jan Cleere

Growing up can be hard enough, but when you are a teenage girl on the western frontier every day is a lesson in survival. From being held captive by a Native American tribe (like Olive Ann Oatman), to mastering the dangerous business of wrangling cattle (like Edith Jane Bass), Amazing Girls of Arizona captures the remarkable lives of eleven real American girls (all seventeen years old or younger) who were pioneers of their time.

Love this book!

These are some of the best short stories I've read. I thank the author for breathing new life into these stories. I grew up in Arizona and never would have heared many of these tales without this important work. I have bought several copies as gifts to everyone's delight.
