An intrepid traveler's account of her sojourn in Colorado in 1873, as she was returning to England from Hawaii. Journeying alone, without a gun, Miss Bird describes the American West, mining towns, isolated cabins, and the people she encountered--especially the desperado "Mountain Jim" Nugent. Originally published in 1879.
