William Haywood Henderson
Dear Reader, When I was a young man, I worked on a ranch in the Wind River Valley in Wyoming. There I met an engaging, rough-edged woman who had spent most of her life working "men's jobs" (ranchhand, road crew, outfitter). At times she had even passed herself off as a man. I learned that she had raised a daughter alone in the 1920s and 1930s. Her amazing life inspired my novel, AUGUSTA LOCKE, the story of a resourceful woman and her beautiful daughter, set in the magnificent mountains and deserts of 20th century Wyoming. I hope you enjoy traveling the West with "Gussie" Locke. Please visit www.williamhaywoodhenderson.com to enter the book giveaway contests! Thanks! William Haywood Henderson "Augusta Locke is a fascinating and powerful character," Chicago Tribune "An extraordinarily beautiful creation... Read slowly, and enjoy this raw and haunting tale," Booklist (starred review) "An uncommonly beautiful, haunting book. ...Henderson has managed to create one of the most arresting female literary characters in quite some time," Philadelphia Inquirer Finalist for the Willa Award, Spur Award, and the Mountains and Plains Booksellers' Award |
