"Marilyn Whiteley has constructed a fascinating historical account of the life of Isabel Crawford, missionary to the Kiowa Indians. Independent, deaf, and unmarried, Crawford broke one stereotype after another-and kept diaries to document her unusual career. Dr. Whiteley's account is meticulous and readable, the work of a master historian. This book is a fine addition to a growing bibliography on the important subject of women in mission."--Back cover.
