A Buffalo Robe for Bertha Doan

Follow young Bertha Doan’s adventures in pioneer Texas as she settles into her adobe home on the Red River, the Northern border of Texas. Her Quaker father has established a trading post there which is the chief outfitter of cattle drives going north each spring. The uncouth cowboys are a contrast to her polite friends back home in Ohio and Bertha prefers the Comanche friends who come to Doan’s to trade.
