The books in this section are usually hardcover and in decent condition, though we'll sometimes offer hard-to-find books in lesser condition at a reduced price. Though we often put images of the book with their original dust jackets, the copies here won't always (or even often) have them. If that is important to you, please call ahead or say so in the order comments!
This memoir relates the adventurous and insightful story of Sister Blandina Segale, a Sister Charity of Cincinnati who spent over two decades on the Western frontier. Her remarkable writings demonstrate the deep faith and undaunted spirit that propelled her to offer untiring service as she ministered in Trinidad, Colorado, and in Santa Fe and Albuquerque, New Mexico. Sister Blandina describes her experiences with Native Americans, Hispanics, and Anglo newcomers as she taught school, built hospitals, visited jails, and reached out to every segment of society, even as she railed against the violence and injustices of the period.
