I purchased this book thinking it was an actual diary, but discovered it is fiction when I picked it up to read. It is an interesting novel, a page-turner and I enjoyed reading it.

My husband and I have traveled throughout the southeast Arizona region, the setting for most of the story. However, I felt that Ms. Turner got a little carried away with some of the events and that the coincidences were a little too ironic.

Not as good as other of Turner's works I have read. This book was long and so many momentous things happened to the main character that it got a bit ridiculous. Nevertheless, I was motivated to read until the end and see where the story went.

A story of frontier life taken from the true diary of the author's ancestor. What a spunky lady!

Not as great as the first one but I still couldn't put it down. It dragged in parts but overall thumbs up.
