E36: Military Wives: Women Who Helped Settle the Frontier

In honor of Women’s History Month, award-winning author and historian Jan Cleere joins Russell and Alan to discuss her new book Military Wives in Arizona Territory: A History of Women Who Shaped the Frontier. Most of these women journeyed from the East and knew little of the hardships and challenges waiting in the Arizona Territory. But these brave, bold women persevered and left a legacy that endures today.

Dude rancher Russell True and sidekick Steven Clauson team up in Tucson, Arizona to talk all things Western. They'll share adventures from the range, from the back of a horse, and a variety of western life adventures. (You may wonder how they lived to tell their tales!) And they'll have a roundup of guests, Western writers, horse lovers, chuckwagon chefs, ranchers, nature lovers. It's the West now and then.
