SUMMARY:Book signing with Amy Wink
DESCRIPTION:Book signing with Amy Wink for her new book\, "Tandem Lives: The Frontier Texas Diaries of Henrietta Baker Embree and Tennessee Keys Embree\, 1856-1884"\n\nfrom the book jacket:   "The mythology of the frontier Texas woman portrays her as fiercely independent\, strong willed\, and adventurous. This eye-opening book\, however\, offers a far more complex and intimate version of women's cultural experiences in mid-nineteenth-century Texas through these diaries. Both women were the sequential wives of Dr. John W. Embree of Belton\, a physician\, slaveholder\, farmer\, merchant\, and man of mercurial temperament. Their diaries reveal the social and personal challenges women experienced in a region beset first by the Civil War and then by Reconstruction and offer insights into the two women's struggles to survive as battered wives in a society that offered little support - and less chance of excape - for women  bound by 19th-century ideas about gender roles."
