I love this book- "Letters of a Woman Homesteader". It is letters that Elinore Pruitt wrote as she homesteaded in Burnt Fork Wyoming circa 1914. Here is a link to the book online.

There is also another book by the same woman called "Letters on an Elk Hunt"

Please let me know what you ladies think!

Actually Ladies- You don't need to get them from the library if you don't have the time- You can read them online if you like by clicking those links :)

Can you believe I had that checked out from the library but just took it back since I couldn't find time to read it? I have to get it again this summer sometime.
