Maggie

Maggie Douglas was different than other girls her age. From the time she was 13 years old there were no dolls or frilly dresses for her. Instead Maggie could out ride, out rope, and out shoot her two brothers, father and hands on the Lazy D, her family's cattle ranch northwest of Kansas City, Missouri. But besting her brothers and father wasn't enough. As Maggie grew to adulthood she wanted to make a real difference in the expanding country around her. Striking out alone, going from Boston to Cheyenne to Deadwood, Maggie spoke for those who couldn't, or wouldn't, as a voice for the women's movement, a reporter for the Cheyenne Sun, or helping the Lakota at Standing Rock Reservation in Dakota Territory. Maggie would make a difference, but would it cost her everything?
