At a time when women did not commonly travel unescorted,
carry a rifle, sit down in bars, or have romantic liaisons
with other women, Lucy Lobdell boldly set forth to earn
men's wages. Lucy Lobdell did all of these things in a
personal quest to work and be paid, to wear what she wanted,
and love whomever she cared to. But to gain those freedoms
she had to endure public scorn and wrestle with a sexual
identity whose vocabulary had yet to be invented. In this
riveting historical novel, William Klaber captures the life
of a brave woman who saw well beyond her era. This is the fictionalized account of Lucy's foray into the
world of men and her inward journey to a new sexual
identity. It is her promised memoir as hear and recorded a
century later by William Klaber, an upstream neighbor.
Meticulously researched and told with compassion and
respect, this is historical fiction at its best.
