Very enjoyable read. Lily Casey was a fiercely independent, feisty woman with "pluck" born in the early 1900's. She broke horses, ran ranches, taught school, flew planes, and raised two kids. One of who became the mother and one of the main characters in Jeannette Walls other novel, The Glass Castle. Fun read, and so interesting to hear about this strong woman.
