Opis

In 1905, a young wife arrived in a strange land to join her mining engineer husband. The challenges of her new life proved both exciting and dangerous. She recorded her domestic-and, later, historical-adventures with youthful enthusiasm and naive bigotry in this series of engaging autobiographical essays. Her literary time capsules capture the attitudes and mores of the era while revealing a woman gently reared to live a life quite different than the difficult one she chose.
