Story
Discover the stories of 12 women who heard the call to settle the West and who came from all points of the globe to begin their journeys. As a slave Clara watched helplessly as her husband and children were sold, only to be reunited with her youngest daughter as a free woman six decades later. As a young girl, Charlotte hid her gender to escape a life of poverty and became the greatest stagecoach driver who ever lived. As a Native American, Gertrude fought to give her people a voice and to educate leaders about the ways and importance of America's native people.

Disappointing

These frontier women’s stories are just amazing, but it’s just not worth listening to the overly preachy bits after each story.

Story
Lu and her friends are all hitting 50 and have no intention of learning to knit. Feisty and fabulous, this foursome is determined to grow old disgracefully. Join them on their journey across the desert and across the years to their home town and a school reunion, in this audio drama from the international best-selling author of The Bride Stripped Bare.

Fun story, horrid music

Fun story, horrid music
Reviewed: 09-29-20
Ugh. The drum/guitar at the beginning, ending and sometimes middle of every chapter is too loud, too harsh and doesn’t work with the story.
The story is fun, voices are done very well and a believable story.
