Raveled ends of sky

Nancy Maguire, a blue blood from Boston, wants to find her place within the burgeoning society of the mid-nineteenth century. But her parents want her to marry. She envisions her life in California -- a land in the midst of warring factions -- where her dream of owning a horse ranch will come true.She locates a group travelling west, and Nancy quickly learns that women in her society do not have the same rights or equalities of their counterparts; the women of the group don't trust her independence and the men are threatened by it. On the trail, accompanied by Hart, a love she never expected to find, and Lottie, an irreplaceable friend, Nancy faces starvation, Indian warfare, thieves, and war. She travels across the wild frontier on her feisty mare with a wagonful of goods, and on the way she slowly ascertains the true meaning of independence.
