Wild Women of the Wild West

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Susan Guevara. Calamity Jane, Annie Oakley, and Belle Starr are three of the fifteen tough-minded Wild West women featured in this book. Winter is so unapologetically enthusiastic about his subjects that it's hard to find fault with occasional editorializing ("Calamity Jane reinvented what it was to be a woman"). Guevara's portraits are sure and unflinching, just like the women they depict. Timeline. Bib.
Reviewer: Nell Beram
