Download or read book Western Women Abridged Annotated written by Mary Osborne Douthit and published by BIG BYTE BOOKS. This book was released on with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The purpose of this book is to record woman’s part in working out the plan of our Western civilization; no other civilization, perhaps, bearing so conspicuously the imprint of her hand and her brain." So wrote Mary Douthit, herself a pioneer woman. She continued: "In patience, courage, and endurance, woman proved man’s equal. In her ability to cope with strenuous conditions, she was again his recognized peer. In property rights woman enjoys far greater privileges here than in the older portions of our country. These Northwestern States are among the few in the nation that make the mother a legal custodian of her children, and entrust her with the property of minor heirs." Seldom will you find a book that brings so many personal stories of early western pioneers together in one volume.

Download or read book The Oldest Pioneer Autobiography of Charles Peters Abridged Annotated written by Charles Peters and published by . This book was released on 2016-11-26 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the age of 90, when he wrote this memoir, Charles Peters had lived an extraordinary life. Born in the Azores, an immigrant to America at 10, he caught the Gold Fever in 1849 and headed to California. He spent the rest of his long life there, prospecting for gold and ranching.As you'll see in his book, he became something of an encyclopedia on California mining. He packed this book full of wonderful tales as well as a great many fun facts about gold, mining, and the luck of the Chinese. If it hadn't been for an accidental drowning at 96, he may well have made it to a much greater age. He had the genes for it.Every memoir of the American West provides us with another view of the movement that changed the country forever.For the first time, this long out-of-print volume is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones.
