斯诗拉顿的《女开拓者》一书,是根据身临其境的妇女们在美国西部开发期开拓地的生活体验所写的手记而创作出来的。提起美国西部开发史,往往写的都是骑兵队、骑马牧童、持枪的歹徒、印第安人等男人们的豪壮故事,至于妇女的形象,就记述得不很清楚。而在这本书里,却可以使你了解到妇女们生动具体的形象。美国西部开发时期的结束,已有百年之久了,怎么可能写出这样 Szetlarden’s Book of The Blazers was created based on the written notes of the immersive women’s experiences of living in the pioneering western United States. Mentioning the history of the development of the western region of the United States often includes heroic stories of cavalry teams, horse-riding shepherds, gangsters armed with firearms, and Indians. As for the image of women, it is not clear. But in this book, you can make you understand the vivid and specific images of women. The end of the western development period in the United States has been around for a hundred years. How could it be written?
