Pioneer Loves — Ernest Haycox

Here are nine stories of the pioneer West and the men and women who rode its plains, tamed its forests, faced its dangers, and found love in the wilderness. One tells of a mothers love for her son; one of a bitter marriage; another of a warm and fumbling frontier courtship; and still another of a passion as deep as the wilderness in which it was conceived. Share with the trailbreakers and homesteaders the heartbreaks and triumphs, dangers and victories experienced by those lusty Americans pioneering a vast new land.
