Harriet Bishop, expected to provide service in a quiet manner, was forthright in her educational, intellectual, literary, and political efforts. This real estate entrepreneur had to be meek in fighting a bitter lawsuit. Working for Prohibition, she married an alcoholic. Dedicating part of her life to children, she had none of her own. Her frugal nature and strong business judgment did not keep her from dying broke. And, she served a native population without real knowledge of its culture of tolerance for its people as a whole. the territory Harriet Bishop so bravely traversed in the mid-nineteenth century is relevant to everyone who dares a life of her own. --- from book's back cover
