93 - Women on the Chisholm Trail
Let me know what you thought of this podcast! Send a text.
Women were told the Chisholm Trail was no place for them. Society’s rules declared a “proper lady” should remain at home—managing the household, raising children, and waiting for her husband’s return.
And wearing split skirts or breeches, and sleeping beneath the stars among men? These were considered scandalous. Dangerous and Unthinkable.
But some women didn’t listen. We'll share a few of their stories.
