A Classic Western Romance. 'The only thing that troubled me, and I tried to laugh it out of my thoughts, was the connection with the reputed witch, but foolish as I knew such notions to be, I was, however, unable to banish them, and I often wished that the beautiful Ysidria was anyone in the world but the niece of Ambrosia Moreno.' The Beautiful Eyes of Ysidria is an 1894 novella set in California.

B. M. (Bertha Muzzy) Bower was the first woman to make a career of writing popular westerns.

Her first, Chip of the Flying U, lays out a ranch in Montana and introduces the Happy Family, the bunkhouse gang that reappears in her later books. Chip is the typical woman-shy...

"These letters are in no sense a history-except that they contain the truth. They were written at the time and within close range of the events they describe. Half of the fighting, including the brave attack before Fromelles, is left untouched on, for these pages do not attempt to narrate the full story of the Australian Imperial Force in France.
