In this anthology of thirty-four writers who published during the settlement years of the American frontier, Miller assembles nonfiction, fiction, poetry, and occasional writings from women of Anglo, Chinese, Hispanic, and Native American ethnicity. Variously addressing such themes as isolation, drudgery, frustration, mourning, and even mysticism, these writers offer up a different frontier, one that focuses on women's experiences as much as men's. In brief biographical and historical introductions to each writer, Miller shares insights and context as engaging as the selections themselves.
