- Review: A very good piece of historical fiction about Charlotte (Charley) Parkhurst, a well-known stagecoach driver. The story conveys the difficulties which led to the gender deception in the first place, and the difficulties maintaining it over a lifetime. The story immediately called to mind "Pope Joan" and "The Last Report From Little No Horse", both about women in the same position. Very good read!
