Publisher's Synopsis

""A Lady's Life in the Rocky Mountains"" is a travelogue written by Isabella Lucy Bird, a British explorer and writer, in 1886. The book chronicles Bird's journey through the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, Wyoming, and Utah in the late 19th century. Bird's vivid descriptions of the landscapes and people she encounters on her journey provide a unique insight into the rugged and untamed American West of that era. The book also explores themes of gender and social class, as Bird challenges the traditional roles and expectations of women in Victorian society. Overall, ""A Lady's Life in the Rocky Mountains"" is a captivating and insightful account of one woman's adventures in the American West during a time of great change and transformation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
