When Linnie Colsworth came from the East to visit relatives in Omaha, she found a wider, more hazardous world than she had ever known. In the wake of the Civil War, land seekers were pouring into the West and displacing the Indian tribes. Although Omaha was beginning to put on social airs, Nebraska was still a raw territory. Not one to spend her days sewing, Linnie traveled up the Missouri to deliver a "Dear John" message to her cousin's fiance. In a wink, she became the wife of the handsome lieutenant. They came to love and trust each other . . . their survival on the frontier required nothing less, and a good deal more, than that.Bess Streeter Aldrich is the author of 'The Lieutenants Lady (G. K.
