Charting the trail over the Great Plains from NEW YORK to the Mexican Place of California, a headstrong few embarks on a new life in this common work of historical fiction as unforgiving, moving, and unstable as the frontier. A recent finishing institution graduate, 18-year-old Garnet Cameron is desperate for direction. Too motivated for the restrictive manners of the top class, Garnet is effortlessly drawn to Oliver Hale, a frontier investor from the Western. Unlike the men to whom she's accustomed, Oliver treats Garnet as an equal and respects her independence. His stories of adventure on the plains joy her. And his proposal of relationship is accepted. Garnet eagerly grabs hold of the assurance and prospects of a thrilling future, only to learn how ill-prepared she is for the punishing panorama of the Jubilee Path and the even harsher realities of human nature. Made into a feature film, Jubilee Path is a classic novel of a female in the old Western, beloved not only for the rebelliousness and resilience of its heroine, but for its authenticity, its grand sweep, its unsparing intimacy, and its genuine portrayal of the survivors and victims - and victors and villains - of the defiant American wilderness.
