Who says girls can't be cowboys? Lucille Mulhall wasn’t like most girls in the 1890s. She didn’t give a lick about sewing or cooking or becoming a lady. Lucille had her heart set on roping and riding. At a time when most women couldn’t vote or own property, Lucille never let society’s expectations or the dangers of roping and riding stop her from pursuing her passion.
Traveling around the country, she broke records and thrilled crowds with her daring acts. Soon cowboys, ranch hands, and folks all over the world cheered for the feisty and fearless "girl cowboy". This rollicking biography of a pioneering cowgirl draws kids into the Wild West life and makes them cheer for a woman who wouldn't let anyone tell her what she could or couldn't be.
