Title: Woman of the Plains
Description: "From her first journal entry in 1888 to her last in 1925, Nellie M. Perry provided a unique glimpse into life on the Texas frontier." "Miss Nellie, as she was known, first visited her brother, George Morgan Perry, in the Panhandle in 1888 and eventually came to live in Ochiltree County in 1916. During those years and afterward, she kept journals of her life in the Panhandle. During that time she also wrote stories and essays about the people and things she encountered in that region.".

"In Woman of the Plains, Sandra Gail Teichmann presents Miss Nellie's never-before-published accounts. In all cases, Miss Nellie loved to travel, and her interest in a world even wider than the distant horizons of the Panhandle creates a unique angle from which to view the High Plains people."--BOOK JACKET.
