One Thousand White Women: The Journals of May Dodd: A Novel

One Thousand White Women is the story of May Dodd and a colorful assembly of pioneer women who, under the auspices of the U.S. government, travel to the western prairies in 1875 to intermarry among the Cheyenne Indians. The covert and controversial "Brides for Indians" program, launched by the administration of Ulysses S. Grant, is intended to help assimilate the Indians into the white man's world. Toward that end May and her friends embark upon the adventure of their lifetime. Jim Fergus has so vividly depicted the American West that it is as if these diaries are a capsule in time.

One Thousand White Women

The book is an engaging historical fiction about the American Westward Movement. A romantic novel which treats all the characters politically correctly. A fun read.

Entertaining read

This book was entertaining and amusing. I am happy that I was clearly aware that it was fictional as I read it b/c I couldn't help thinking that it was a little too "sweet" at times. I would like to have seen more character development...

Better idea than execution

There was a point in this book when I had to decide if I wanted to continue. Only one other book in the last couple of years made me think that: A Wolf at the Table. That one so brutalized me as a reader that I never picked it back up....
