Gr 6-10-These clearly written series titles are useful as introductions to biographical history but contain no new insights. Crazy Horse, an Oglala Lakota warrior, was present at or took part in several major encounters with the U.S. Army during the 1860s and 1870s. His quiet, spiritual manner, as well as his military prowess, made him a leader among his people. Women who played vital roles in the development of the frontier are the subject in Krohn's volume. The move westward was expensive, tiring, lengthy, adventurous, dangerous, and rewarding as the author illustrates in the stories of Virginia Reed, Laura Ingalls Wilder, Annie Oakley, Margaret Tobin Brown, Calamity Jane, and Belle Starr. Both books include a few sidebars and average-quality, black-and-white photos and reproductions. Unfortunately, few captions note dates or locations.-Patricia Ann Owens, Wabash Valley College, Mt.

Illustrated mostly with vintage black-and-white photos, this composite biography features not only Wild West legends such as Annie Oakley, Margaret Brown, and Calamity Jane, but also such women as Virginia Reed, a survivor of the Donner Party, and Laura Ingalls Wilder, among others. The coherent introduction, conclusion, and transitional material frame the biographies well. Bib., ind. (c) Copyright 2010. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
