Más información sobre el libro

Isabella L. Bird, a pioneering 19th-century British traveler, embarked on an 800-mile horseback journey to Colorado, seeking the region's reputed health benefits. Defying societal norms, she rode astride rather than sidesaddle. Throughout her adventure, she penned letters to her sister, which captured her experiences and observations. These letters were initially published in Leisure Hour magazine and later compiled into her renowned work, A Lady's Life in the Rocky Mountains, showcasing her spirit of exploration and unique perspective on the American West.
