by Mary Austin (Author), Mary Austin (Author)
Mary Austin's 1917 novel illuminates a crucial issue in California history - the usurpation of water from the Owens Valley. The frenzied speculation in land and resources, labour protests, and feminist organizing of the time, are exemplified in the book by the story of one independent young woman.
