About this listen
Born to wealth that the Civil War ravaged, held captive by renegade Comanche, and rejected by family and friends, Mary Elizabeth (“Libby”) Haley ran away from home at the age of 14. Libby learned to navigate the dangerous and volatile Old West and made a name for herself as Squirrel Tooth Alice. Given her moniker because of a gap in her front teeth and her passion for raising ground squirrels as pets, Libby made the best of a difficult situation. She created a successful business, ultimately allowing her to build and run her own establishment.
A study in grit and grace, this is a story of a woman who chose not only to survive but to thrive in a world that did not recognize women as equals to men. Libby is an inspiration for women who followed.
Follow Libby on her journey and learn about this incredible, almost-forgotten icon of the West.
Montgomery’s narrative skillfully captures the rugged essence of the Old West while celebrating the remarkable resilience and strength of women during that era. The story centers on Libby Haley, later known as Squirrel Tooth Alice, a real historical figure known for her resilience, indomitable spirit, and larger-than-life personality. Through Montgomery’s vivid and engaging writing, readers are transported back in time to experience the challenges and triumphs of Libby’s extraordinary life.
The author’s attention to historical detail and her ability to weave these elements into a gripping and inspirational tale is truly impressive. Montgomery’s portrayal of Libby is both respectful and exhilarating, highlighting her courage, independence, and the profound impact she had on those around her. The portrayal of Libby's adventures, trials, and triumphs serves as a testament to the strength and resilience of women throughout history.
Highly recommended for readers seeking an engaging historical narrative with a strong inspirational core. Montgomery’s tale of Squirrel Tooth Alice is both an educational journey and a celebration of the enduring strength of women.
