Sylvie Pelletier is the irrepressible young heroine of this sweeping historical novel, set in Moonstone, Colorado in 1907. Drawn from true stories of Colorado history, 'Gilded Mountain' is an unforgettable saga of a bygone American West seized by robber barons and settled by immigrants; the tale of a hardscrabble education, about right and wrong, and the consequences of speaking out against injustice. From the author of 'My Notorious Life'.
