Molly McDonald - Saga of a Woman Pioneer (Western Novel)
Randall Parrish
Publisher: e-artnow
Summary
Major McDonald does not hesitate to bring his high-spirited daughter, Molly, to his assigned location while underestimating the attention that she attracts from his soldiers. But Molly is not an ordinary woman and soon she embarks on a completely new journey that will make her a woman pioneer! Except: "When, late in May, 1868, Major Daniel McDonald, Sixth Infantry, was first assigned to command the new three company post established southwest of Fort Dodge, designed to protect the newly discovered Cimarron trail leading to Santa Fé across the desert, and, purely by courtesy, officially termed Fort Devere, he naturally considered it perfectly safe to invite his only daughter to join him there for her summer vacation. Indeed, at that time, there was apparently no valid reason why he should deny himself this pleasure. Except for certain vague rumors regarding uneasiness among the Sioux warriors north of the Platte, the various tribes of the Plains were causing no unusual trouble to military authorities, although, of course, there was no time in the history of that country utterly devoid of peril from young raiders, usually aided and abetted by outcast whites."
