Pioneer Women and the Journey West

We here at the Bookery are thrilled to have recently gotten in a whole slew of gorgeous books on pioneer women and women's stories of the westward trail.

These books cover fascinating topics of the Old West, from medicine to cookery.
They would make fabulous gifts for the ladies in your life who are interested in history and women's stories.


Each book is in perfect condition, and many contain beautiful old photographs of women living in the west in the 1800s, pioneering and trying to make the best of their rough situations.



So many fascinating stories! From Texas to Nevada to Utah to right here in the Mother Lode of California:




We love these books because often they allow the untold stories of countless courageous women to finally be told and appreciated.



Check out this feisty lady!

Do yourself the favor of looking into these books of adventure and inspiration.
And remember to stuff one into the Christmas stocking of a lucky lady you love!
