Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - When Calamity Jane and the Lady Wildcats was first published in 1927, Thomas Beer, with tongue in cheek if not in check, noted the book's underlying theory: 'The women of the pioneer epoch--say, from 1840 to 1890--had their feet planted on a resonant drum of man's sexual necessity. They could choose the measure of the dance and the amount of noise to be exacted from creatures in a state of animal tension. Wifehood, polyandry, and an excused rapacity were open to the shrewd.' Arguments and assents to that theory aside, Aikman's book is still good fun. Our fascination with Calamity Jane has, if anything, increased since Aikman exploded her pretensions and revealed her genius for publicity. Other ladies of noisy repute featured in these pages are Cattle Kate Maxwell, a cattle rustler headed for a noose; Belle Starr, brainy for a desperado; Lola Montez, the tempestuous dancer and courtesan; Pearl Hart, the last lady road agent; Madame Moustache, a polite presence of gambling hells; Poker Alice Tubbs, a cigar-smoking card sharp who looked like Winston Churchill; Carry Nation, the saloon smasher; and Bridget Grant, Portland's queen of the shanghai gangs.Special features of this edition are the 'Life and Adventures of Calamity Jane by Herself' and an introduction by Watson Parker, author of Deadwood: The Golden Years.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Calamity Jane and the Lady Wildcats' is a compelling historical exploration of the women who defied conventions on the American frontier. Written by Duncan Aikman, this work delves into the lives of notorious and spirited figures of the Old West, led by the legendary Martha Jane Canary, better known as Calamity Jane. Far from the sanitized versions of frontier life, Aikman presents a gritty and vivid account of women who lived as outlaws, gamblers, and adventurers in a world dominated by men.The narrative captures the essence of the 'Lady Wildcat'-women who possessed the toughness and independence required to survive the lawless territories of the 19th century. Beyond the titular figure, the book examines a gallery of characters who challenged societal expectations, providing a fascinating look at the social dynamics and gender roles of the era. Through Aikman's journalistic lens, readers gain insight into the myths and realities of frontier life, making it an essential read for those interested in Western history and women's biography.With its focus on the rugged landscape of the American West, 'Calamity Jane and the Lady Wildcats' remains a significant contribution to the lore of the frontier, humanizing the figures who have often been reduced to mere caricatures in popular culture.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
