Prospects of a Woman
Elisabeth Parker comes to California from Massachusetts in 1849 with her new husband, Nate, to reunite with her father, whos struck gold on the American River. But she soon realizes her husband is not the man she thoughtand neither is her father, who abandons them shortly after they arrive. As Nate struggles with his sexuality, Elisabeth is forced to confront her preconceived notions of family, love, and opportunity. She finds comfort in corresponding with her childhood friend back home, writer Louisa May Alcott, and spending time in the company of a mysterious Californio Don. Armed with Ralph Waldo Emersons Self-Reliance, she sets out to determine her role in building the West, even as she comes to terms with the sacrifices she must make to achieve independence and happiness. A gripping and illuminating window into life in the Old West, Prospects of a Woman is the story of one womans passionate quest to carve out a place for herself in the liberal and bewildering society that emerged during the California gold rush frenzy.
