RWomen have seen husbands and sons murdered before their very eyes, have had their little children torn from their arms and carried away, their homes and possessions given to the ¿ames and some of these pioneer mothers of Wyoming have themselves been tortured and killed or carried into a captivity worse than death.Not only have they suffered every hardship at the hands of blood-thirsty barbarians, but they and their little ones have been driven from their homes again and again by foes of their own race and blood, almost as cruel as the savages themselves. Yet the pioneer mother of Wyoming was will ing to undergo all these privations and many more that she might lend her help in building up a home for those depend~ ent on her, who were dearer to her than her own life.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
