Trained as a nurse and midwife, Elizabeth Evans never wished to help set up the fledgling town of Aspen Coulee, Alberta, but moves there with her father when he agrees to be the city doctor. Housekeeper at the Evans house, Ann Montgomery hoped to keep all her San Francisco secrets locked in her early wedding chest. It is 1907, and the Canadian Pacific Railway is driving a car the engine of the west. Against the fluid backdrop of the Canadian prairies, For a Modest Price is a story about the women of the era and the objectives that made them the primary caretakers of not only their own families, but of the whole town. 100 years ago, selections for women were few; married or single, they all stepped into the roles thrust after them. For a Modest Price is a remarkable audiobook that talks about the development, in a few short years, of your prairie town from windblown wilderness to a appropriate place for flowerboxes and college recitals.
