Letters of a Dakota Divorcee is a collection of letters written by Jane Burr, a young woman who moved to the Dakota Territory in the late 1800s. The letters are addressed to her sister back East and document Jane's struggles as a divorced woman in a society that did not accept divorcees. Through her letters, Jane describes her daily life on the prairie, her interactions with the local townspeople, and her attempts to establish a new life for herself. She also shares her thoughts on a variety of topics, including women's rights, religion, and the challenges of living in a harsh and isolated environment. As the letters progress, Jane's voice becomes stronger and more confident, reflecting her growing independence and self-reliance. The book offers a unique perspective on life in the American West during a time of great change and upheaval, and provides a compelling portrait of a woman who refused to be defined by society's expectations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
