Story of the American West

The book tells the story of America's 48th state through the lives of Apaches, Mountain Men, Hispanics, Soldiers, Mormons, Cowboys, Blacks, Outlaws and Others Who Struggled in Arizona's White Mountains, One of the Last Untamed Regions of the West.


"The book weaves the essential elements of the mythic West into a highly readable story. This non-fiction version of Michener's Centennial is comparable to the novel in poignant detail and narative scope."

Three Strong Western Women

Emma Lee, a Mormon handcart pioneer, was the 17th plural wife of John D. Lee, and ran the historic Lee's Ferry.

Minnie Guenther, was a missionary who played a crucial role in helping Apaches survive horrific epidemics.

Lozen was a powerful Apache shaman, healer and warrior, who rode with her brother, Victorio and Gerniomo.

"Gripping personal narratives pull readers into the troubled times and tribulations that each of these women faced during a turning point in the history of the American West. The second part is historical background. It explains the complicated backstories and why many of these things happened."
