Item description from seller

Z5 - A hardcover book SIGNED by Elithe Hamilton Kirkland on the front free endpaper in very good condition in good dust jacket that is mylar protected. Dust jacket has some wrinkling, chipping and crease on the edges and corners, scattered light scratches, rubbing and scuffing, light tanning and shelf wear. Book has some bumped corners, some wrinkling on the spine edges, some scattered light stains and scuffing on the page edges, light tanning and shelf wear. 9.5"x6.5", 502 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. This is the extraordinary story of Harriet Potter - the delicate, dark-eyed girl who became a legend during the stirring days of the battle for Texan independence and who played a dramatic part in the growth and destiny of her beloved and beautiful land. Harriet Potter was many things. She was the frightened young girl, abandoned with two small children in a savage, lonely wilderness and left there to die. She was the proud beauty, dressed in a silken gown and mud-spattered slippers, waiting to ride away from the approaching Mexican armies with the man she loved. To some, Harriet was the scheming, shameless wanton who deserted her husband to take up with another man - a man linked with a sensational scandal. To the Caddo Indians living in the rich forest and lake country of Northeast Texas, she was the "kishi-woman," kindred to Ina, the Earth Mother. And to others, she as "The Bravest Woman in the Republic of Texas" - heroine of a thousand tales, each one taller than the last, and each one true. Harriet's story is a story of stormy passion and idyllic love, of jealously and vengeance, of unbearable loneliness and suffering, and of triumph over all the odds life could present to one beautiful, courageous woman. But above all, it is the story of her three great loves: for the Gambler - the man with the hero's face and a coward's cunning; for the Statesman - who swept her along in his headlong escape from a hideous past; and for the Trader - with whom she was to know true and lasting happiness. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
