Matchless — Jane Candia Coleman

Matchless is a passionate, compelling, and magnificently authentic human drama based on the diary of Augusta Tabor, wife of Horace Tabor, the Colorado silver king. This is Augusta's story of their struggles until Horace struck it rich and she was renounced as an embarrassment by a man who had or could buy anything.
