A moving, exciting, and heartfelt American saga inspired by the author's own family memoirs, these words belong to Sarah Prine, a woman of spirit and fire who forges a full and remarkable existence in a harsh, unfamiliar frontier. Scrupulously recording her steps down the path Providence has set her upon—from child to determined young adult to loving mother—she shares the turbulent events, both joyous and tragic, that molded her, and recalls the enduring love with cavalry officer Captain Jack Elliot that gave her strength and purpose.Rich in authentic everyday details and alive with truly unforgettable characters, These Is My Words brilliantly brings a vanished world to breathtaking life again.

Initial thoughts: On to Arizona territories. Diary. So real it could have been so.

Second read:

These Is My Words is the story of Sarah Prine during her time in the Arizona Territories from 1881 to 1901. It's a moving story, an emotional story, full of action and adventure, of joy and woe, of gain and loss. I had to add this to my favorites shelf.
