Daredevil Dames celebrates the most adventurous and unconventional women of the West. Lured by the promise of freedom, these fearless females gained fame as courageous cowgirls, tenacious trick riders of the Wild West Shows, and death-defying performers for traveling circuses. They were dreamers who defied societal expectations and competed with men in rodeo, motorcar racing, and other sports. Some women also defied gravity and took to the skies in flimsy new-fangled ¿flying machines.¿ A few of them traveled solo cross-country long before there were superhighways to follow. Their desire to see the territory ahead was strong and they conquered the many obstacles in their way. Included in this book are stories of modern-day remarkable women who continue to push the limits of the body and the mind, proving that the bold, indomitable spirit lives on!

From refreshing beverages to packable stews and casseroles perfect for feeding the crowd on branding days to cast-iron recipes perfect for a pack trip into the mountains, Cowgirls in the Great Outdoors includes all the recipes that the modern cowgirl needs to keep her crew fed and her family happy on the trail or around the campfire. As with the Cowgirls¿ other books, this cookbook will combine the best of cowgirl myths, nostalgia, and legends with useable, delicious, and fun recipes for use in the great outdoors or at home. This book once again celebrates the romance of the American cowgirl from the late nineteenth century to today, through historic photographs and modern, western-themed recipes that will appeal to cowboys, as well.
