“Altogether this is a most delightful, inspiring and informative book, worth all the recent volumes of memoirs put together; the translation is quite excellent; in fact, it does not read like a translation at all.” Frank Schloesser.

“Chief defect (or excellence) is its haphazard garrulity. Reminiscences give the book its value, apart from our interest in the very communicative lady who writes it.”

Adams, Andy. [The outlet.] [†]$1.50. Houghton.
The author, who saw the beginning of the custom of wintering Texan cattle in the Northwest, the measure which brought the extermination of the bison and the confinement of the Indians to their reservations, and who had some experience with railway companies and their methods of caring for cattle, and their prices with contractors, and with the Congressional lobbyist has woven all these things into his story.
“The book needs a glossary if it is to be thoroughly understood by English readers.”
