Description

Roxie Belle McCord Roberts was a woman who knew no limits. Born deep within Illinois corn country during the 1870s to a mother who died soon after and a disgraced father — and raised in a foster family — she nevertheless saw herself destined for greatness. Roxie Belle conceived grand plans for herself at a time when women seldom did so. In tireless pursuit of her ambitions, she became a cattle rancher in Colorado, a newspaper publisher in California, a gold miner in Nevada, and a notorious courtroom brawler everywhere she went. At the peak of her fame, she earned a reputation as a renowned public speaker, rubbing shoulders with presidents and governors. In between, she earned an advanced degree, composed songs, and won trophies as a championship trapshooter. And yet, this remarkably determined and highly unconventional woman passed from the scene completely unknown and forgotten. Now the story of this relentless woman has been rediscovered and told for the first time in Finding Roxie Belle.
