This collection of short, action-filled stories of the Old West s most egregiously badly behaved female outlaws, gamblers, soiled doves, and other wicked women by award-winning Western history author Chris Enss offers a glimpse into Western Women s experience that's less sunbonnets and more six-shooters. Pulling together stories of ladies caught in the acts of mayhem, distraction, murder, and highway robbery, it will include famous names like Belle Starr and Big Nose Kate, as well as lesser known characters."

 

Review:

“Wicked Women” is a fun read that also includes a wealth of little-known history.  It’s obviously well-researched and written from a point of love of the wild west.  The stories feature a wide variety of women whose stories will have you laughing and horrified, sometimes both at the same time.

I definitely recommend “Wicked Women” for anyone with an interest in women’s history, the wild west, or even history in general.  It’s an easy read that can appeal to anyone.

This review is based upon a complimentary copy provided by the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
