Letters of a Woman Homesteader, Part 4

In 1909, a young woman who had lost her husband in a railroad accident ventured into the wild country of Wyoming to make a new life for herself and her two-year old daughter. Letters of a Woman Homesteader tells Elinore Stewart’s true story through her own letters, written over several years to a former employer in Denver. Read by Mary Jo Rudolf.
