I read a book about Stagecoach Mary. It was an incredible book and she was an incredible woman!

What’s the name of the book?

In horrible with titles and authors. I believe I have it in my house somewhere. I looked through my cabinet and not finding it. I’ll look again some more tomorrow and see if I can find it.

I remember when I was reading it, I couldn’t put it down.

I didn’t have time to spend searching for it today. I’ll have to look later in the week. I’ve got to have it around here somewhere. I just can’t remember the title. I tried a google search to see if any were familiar and couldn’t find it. Sorry

No worries. I’m sure I can find a book on her. If you ever come upon it, just let me know. 😊

Yep, learned that in High School in my African American studies class.
