Examining early-20th-century genre fiction from a feminist perspective is a fairly common mode of literary criticism of late. Here, Yates (emeritus English, Univ. of Iowa) turns his attention to women writers of Westerns. Yates examines in detail the works of five writers (B.M. Bower, Caroline Lockhart, Vingie E. Roe, Honore Willsie Morrow, and Katherine Newlin Burt), with brief consideration of five additional writers. His contention is that while on the surface their writing was well within the confines of the genre and societal expectations, women writers of Westerns were subverting traditional values in their fiction. This book is nicely written and the argument well supported. The subject, however, may be of limited interest to most readers. Recommended for academic libraries collecting women's studies literary works and Western fiction collections.?Denise Johnson, Bradley Univ. Lib., Peoria, Ill.
