5.0 out of 5 stars Compelling, April 6, 2007
By 
Dick Stanley (Austin, TX United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Colonel's Lady on the Western Frontier: The Correspondence of Alice Kirk Grierson (Women in the West Series) (Paperback)
Through her letters to her husband, her sons and others, Alice Grierson becomes a friend you won't forget--not her hardy life nor her excruciating death. Her candor on intimate subjects, such as contraception and depression, make her seem modern. Her word pictures of soldier and family life in isolated places such as Fort Concho, Texas--where her child, Edith, died of typhoid fever and was buried with military honors--pull you into a vanished time whose routine hazards helped shape the American character.
