Oh, Calamity! (cont.)
In my last post I started telling the story of Calamity Jane. Rowdy, hard-drinking and rough, Calamity Jane was arguably one of the most iconic characters of the Old West, and without a doubt one of the most notable women of the time, and has secured her place firmly in Western lore. We left off Jane’s story following her alleged military service, so if you’ll lend me your ears, I’ll tell you a bit about the rest of her life.
