Westlake Girl: My Oregon Frontier Childhood is the true story of a
spirited girl coming of age in an isolated village on the Oregon
coast from 1928 to 1936. It portrays the artless feminist strivings
of a capable girl who dreamed of a career in the Coast Guard on the
merit of her skills as a boat pilot and champion swimmer. Frieda's
triumphs (taming a harbor seal as a pet, winning swim races against
older boys) and disappointments (exclusion from the Coast Guard
"for no better reason than that I was a girl") will resonate with
modern women who still meet obstacles - some natural and some
arbitrary - to having it all.
