The autobiography of Calamity Jane. E-book. Formato Mobipocket Calamity Jane - Calamity Jane, 2016 -
A short memoir of Calamity Jane. The Autobiography of Calamity Jane also Martha Canary. Always on the move across the northern plains, Calamity Jane was more camp follower than a scout. A mother of two, she found employment as waitress, laundress, or dance hall girl and was more likely to be wearing a dress than buckskin. She was hard to ignore after a few drinks, and she exploited the aura of fame that dime novels created around her, even selling her autobiography and photos to tourists. She was as wild and outlandish offering a unique perspective into a woman who lived her life outside of the conventions of her time. Famous during her life, Calamity Jane became larger than life after her death in 1903 and her legend lives on through contemporary media, including in the 2013 novel In Calamity’s Wake by Natalee Caple, and as a character on the popular HBO series Deadwood.
Life and Adventures of Calamity Jane. E-book. Formato Mobipocket Calamity Jane - Ionlineshopping.Com, 2018 -
The amazing thing about reading this short auto-biography is that SHE ACTUALLY EXISTED. It reads like all the spaghetti western books, serials, and movies over time but is word for word true. For example how she, Martha Jane Cannary (later Burke), got her name after a battle with Indians (Native Americans as we now correctly call them) where her Captain (Capt Egan) was shot and almost fell off his horse when she turned around heading back toward the battle rescuing him and returning him to safety. Just like something out of a movie. She was the real deal and was well respected by all. Well all except the Native Americans she shot and killed by the dozen. It’s okay P.C people; it was en vogue at the time and completely acceptable behaviour. She was constantly on the move and hung out with the likes of General Custard and Wild Bill Hickok. It’s a story that all women who are aspiring frontiers woman and possibly butch lesbians everywhere.
Lettere alla figlia (1877-1902). E-book. Formato Mobipocket Calamity Jane - Il Narratore, 2014 -
Il diario epistolare (1877-1902) della più famosa eroina del selvaggio West americano, indirizzato alla figlia Janey, letto dalla calda e appassionata voce dell'attrice Lucia Schierano. Calamity Jane fu donna coraggiosa, ma inquieta e fragile, che mascherava la sua sofferenza e inadeguatezza con un comportamento arrogante e apparentemente forte, duro e invulnerabile, ma in realtà il suo carattere ribelle, che cozzava contro la società del tempo, non fece altro che provocarle guai e dissapori. Il suo mito, nel bene e nel male, è intramontabile.
