At last, National Geographic's award-winning photobiography of Annie Oakley bursts into paperback. This stirring story of an enduring American heroine has won widespread acclaim and was named a School Library Journal Best Book of the Year.
Annie's amazing life comes sharply into focus in a compelling narrative, period photography, and in her own words. Two historical maps and a chronology ground the legend in time and place.
Readers ride through a life filled with adventure. Annie grows up in the backwoods of Ohio, hunting game to feed her family. Discovered by Buffalo Bill Cody's Wild West Show, she wows crowds with target shooting and daring horse riding.
Annie's hardships are examined too, as is her inspirational status as a role model for women.

Excellent introduction to this vivacious and adventurous woman who did not let the social norms limit her. Loved the variety of interesting photographs and the text was interesting without being overwhelming.
The inaccurate articles that were first printed in the Chicago Examiner and the Chicago American newspapers and then went viral as newspapers across the nation picked up the story without checking their facts was new to me and interesting. Out of the 55 newspapers that she sued, she won a judgment or settled out-of-court with 54 of them. It is sobering to realize the terrible lack of quality in accurate news reporting continues to be a long-standing problem.
Factual, well-written books about strong people who didn't let "glass ceilings" or "social pressures" keep them from succeeding are so important. I am glad to have run across this one.
