A humorous and inspiring tale of Colorado Gold Rush days and the people who lived them, especially an octogenarian named Henny Comfort and her young friend Nitt Spindle. Henny is a storyteller, a quilter, and a survivor. Both women have had tragedies in their lives, but persevere. Couldn't put this one down - had to know what was happening next, or what story of the past Henny was going to tell. Many surprises. Highly recommend. Can't wait to read more by this author.
