debhall945 's review for:

One Thousand White Women: The Journals of May Dodd by Jim Fergus

2.0

---

Interesting book about a time period we have all seen depicted in many a western movie. Have not read much though from this time period. I am anxious to compare this book to another book that is waiting in the wings, Comanche Moon which is the story of Cynthia Ann Parker, a Texas girl kidnapped by the Comanches. This book focuses on the story of May Dodd and other white women promised as brides to Comanche chiefs to better aid in the introduction of Native Americans into the culture of the conquerors.
