About the Book

The voices of these women, though truly diverse, represent a deep commitment to the land, to their families and communities, and most importantly to the ranching way of life. Women have worked on farms and ranches in Western Canada unheralded for generations, and yet their contributions have received scant attention. In this groundbreaking anthology, more than fifty ranch women share first-hand their lives and experiences. The book is arranged geographically and spans three generations of ranching women giving readers of all ages a unique glimpse at these unsung heroes.
