Sumario:Educated, restless, and inquisitive, Natalie Curtis, Carol Stanley (founder of Ghost Ranch), Alice Klauber, and Mary Cabot Wheelwright were plucky, intrepid women whose lives were transformed in the first decades of the twentieth century by the people and the landscape of the American Southwest.
