Brave trailblazers. These are the WOMEN who tamed the Wild West. Based on historical record, this wagon train saga details a 2,000-mile journey from Chicago to California. Buck Wyatt is a tough, experienced scout who leads a wagon train full of women, including two prostitutes, a hearty widow and an Italian immigrant widow, with 15 men acting as guides. When one of the men disobeys Buck's orders not to fraternize with the ladies, Buck shoots him, causing the others to desert. Instead of turning back, the determined women insist upon going on, learning to ride, shoot and drive mules. Although treacherous terrain and a deadly ambush lie ahead, these tough ladies are filled with the American frontier spirit and nothing will stop them!. 20140605. CLMPL
