White Heart of Mojave
'White Heart of Mojave' Summary
In the early 1920s, two adventurous women, Edna Brush Perkins and Charlotte Hannahs Jordan, set out to escape the constraints of city life and embark on a month-long trek through the unforgiving Death Valley. Their journey, undertaken in an old milk wagon drawn by a horse and a mule, tested their limits and deepened their appreciation for the stark beauty of the desert. Perkins' vivid descriptions of their experiences, from encounters with wildlife to the challenges of navigating the dunes, paint a vivid picture of this extraordinary adventure.Book Details
