Mary George: Her Book

Journey through time and space in 1885 with Mary George. Be on the wagon train as her family travels from Utah to Arizona and New Mexico. Watch as her mother descends into madness and demands more and more of her only daughter. Enjoy her growing friendship with Captain Jack, the guide, and experience her despair when he’s murdered. She is befriended by Grandma Burntwater, a Navajo wise woman who understands her despair. Feel her terror when a drunken Apache kidnaps her, her joy when a notorious cattle rustler/outlaw rescues her. Be there when Tom meets Mary and sees beyond the overalls and ragged leather jacket. He knows she is the love of his life, but he must fight for her. Mary’s father hates Tom and his defiant polygamous mother. Watch Mary gather the courage to break the silken bonds of love and responsibility in order to live life on her own terms.
