A Lady's Life In The Rocky Mountains. University of Oklahoma Press, Norman: 1960. Softcover. Brand new book. Women were scarce enough in the West of the late nineteenth century, and a middle-ages English lady traveling alone, by horseback, was a real phenomenon. It was during the autumn and early winter of 1873 that Isabella Bird made this extended tour of the Rocky Mountain area of Colorado, when she was on her way back to England from the Sandwich Islands. What she called no region for tourists and women is today a popular resort, though some of the back trails retain their inaccessibility and wild aspect. In its simple and disarming style, it is a great piece of reporting on a rugged frontier. - San Francisco Chronicle Delightful letters by an English spinster who recorded a considerable portion of the real West. - Saturday Review This book is a jewel case of keen perception, social analysis, and masterful description for this era. - Chicago Tribune ¶ 282 pages.
