Most of these wome...I was fascinated by this story. Most of these women trailblazers did everything the men did, but, they also had babies along the way. A woman's side of the immigration story is rarely told, that's why I enjoyed this book. I read this book in less than a day. It's rare that I finish a book that quickly- that's how much I enjoyed this one.<br /><br />All the male characters in this book seem to be fairly naive. Some of the male characters also come off as selfish, weak-minded and arrogant. Even though, the men (especially in that time era) truly believed they were doing the right thing for their religion and their family (along with polygamy). Some of the decisions the women's husbands make might irritate you. Though, I overlooked this as the focus of this book is on the strong women in this story and the relationships they create in the absolute worst of conditions.Espanahttp://rantofimitation.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2051837064185729464.post-18692196836700154572012-04-20T22:06:02.761-04:002012-04-20T22:06:02.761-04:00Thank you for introducing me to Sandra Dallas'...Thank you for introducing me to Sandra Dallas' work.
