This book presents the compelling histories of fifteen pioneer
women, all born before 1900, who traveled Nevada Territory in
unstable wagons, on temperamental mules, and in early Motel Ts to
leave a legacy of courage and celebration as they broke records,
hearts, and rules while conquering uncharted ground. Meet Ferminia
Sarras, a Nicaraguan immigrant with four young daughters who
arrived in Nevada in the early 1800s determined to seek her fortune
as a miner . . . and succeeded; Dat so la lee, a Washoe Indian
renowned for her basket-weaving artistry whose work is today
preserved in museums; and Anne Henrietta Martin, a lifelong
suffragette who fought for women's rights and was instrumental in
securing the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment, giving women the
right to vote.
