Cowgirl TrailBy Susan Page DavisDescription:
In 1884 Maggie Porter returns to the Rocking P Ranch. The sanatorium was not able to save her mother and now her father’s health is failing. When the cowboys walk off the job leaving no one to drive the cattle to market, foreman Alex Bright, cannot convince the men to stay. How could Alex let this happen? Book Takeaway:Hard work and determination aren't always enough. Even help from your friends isn't always adequate. God's superior strength and wisdom are crucial. Why the author wrote this book:I read about a real cowboy strike that took place in the Texas panhandle in 1893. It wasn’t very successful, but it got me to thinking—what if the men walked off the job and the women stepped in to get the work done? |
