Letters on an Elk Hunt by a Woman Homesteader

The book features the letters of a self-educated pioneer in southwest Wyoming, who documented her experiences while homesteading in the early 20th century. Written during her challenging journey of establishing a home in the wilderness, these letters served to maintain her mental engagement and nurture friendships in a remote setting. Elinore Pruitt Stewart's correspondence not only reflects the struggles of frontier life but also offers a unique perspective on resilience and community.
