About This Item
Bison Books, 1969. Softcover. Like New. 5x0x7. When Nannie Alderson and her husband, Walt, immigrated to Montana in 1883, they were among the first wave of settlers in eastern Montanaâs nascent cattle kingdom. A Bride Goes West, Aldersonâs memoir of her years as a rancherâs wife, is consistently listed as one of the best books about Montana. In it, she famously paraphrased Theodore Roosevelt, stating that Montana was âa great country for men and horses, but hell on women and cattle.â The story of her transition from a life of Southern privilege to the hardships of ranching on the Northern Plains has come to symbolize the experience of the pioneer woman in Montana.
