True account of western life in the early twentieth century Oct 22, 1999
Verna Davis tells of her life experiences, growing up in Wyoming. All too often, we take for granted many of modern day life's simple conveniences. Knowing that the automobile was invented at the turn of the twentieth century, it is easy to assume that it's use and popularity quickly spread across the country, when in fact it did not become a popular mode of transportation in northern Wyoming for some forty years. Mrs. Davis' account adds the next chapter to Johnson County, Wyoming's colorful history.
A lifetime of memories Apr 01, 2003
By Holly A. Smothers
Verna Davis was my friend when my family lived in Ten Sleep. She played piano at our Methodist Church and often accompanied our choir. Her autobiography was fascinating. What a life she has led! She is a strong, imaginative, cultured and independent woman who helped shape the West into the special place it is today.

Verna Davis' Trails in the Big Horn Mtns. were many. Particularly interesting as I now own the land where the gold mine cabin still rests, though the roof has fallen in. Her book answered many questions I always had about this mine, except for the amout of gold found! As a native of the TenSleep area, it was fun to read about people I know and the familiar landscapes that she so elequently describes. I'm glad she is back in Buffalo, opting over Texas winters! I hope she is still alive so she can know how much I enjoyed her book.
 Absolutely spellbinding.....I couldn't put it down. Mar 02, 1999

Verna Davis's account of growing up in Wyoming along with her many varied experiences are truly inspiring. How I would love to meet this woman! Her quiet strength, great humor and positive attitude are qualities we can all aspire to. Another great woman of the west!
Buy: My Chosen Trails!!! Nov 18, 1998
This book is fantastic. Anyone will love this book. It is about a Wyoming woman. She is 96 years old. She tells about things like what it was like to hear the first plane fly over, and about studing the piano in Chicago. This is one marvoulus book!
