Book excerpt: Meet Lucy E., a tough, driven woman, born in the mountain town of Mount Holly, Vermont about 1826. This is the story, based on fact, of her survival through increasingly hard times in Vermont and New Hampshire, beginning with the painful deaths of her father and husband, and her fateful second marriage to a Civil War veteran who turned out to be a drinker, gambler, arsonist and abusive husband, and who ended up in the state prison in Concord, New Hampshire. Through all of the roughness of her life, including three more hsubands, she persevered in her goals to be a landowner and farmer like her father." --Publisher's description.
