Trilogy about a young girl who travels from the civilized big city of Boston, MA to the coast of what would become Washington state in the late 1800s to be married, only to find her fiancé has abandoned her and she must find a way to survive and adapt to a completely different kind of life. Three good stories that also make great Washington state history curriculum support. ( )

Far from her native Philadelphia, Miss Jane Peck continues to prove that she's more than an etiquette-schooled graduate of Miss Hepplewhite's Young Ladies Academy as she braves the untamed wilderness of Washington Territory in the mid 1850s.

A good read. Didn't like it as much as the first book in the series, but I'm glad I read it. ( )
