Adventuress, miner, home-wrecker, pauper, dreamer-the drama of Colorado legend Baby Doe's life has inspired several biographies, a 1932 film starring Edward G. Robinson, even an opera, but never before a novel.
Few lives have been so dramatic-leaving Oshkosh, WI and heading toward Colorado's mining territory in 1879, she ditched her husband and snared silver magnate Horace Tabor, who divorced his wife to marry Baby in the "wedding of the century."
"A furiously bubbling stew of a manner of ingredients, a grab bag stuffed to the bursting point with the real and invented." --The New York Times Book Review
"The novel proposes that shall feel those distinctly nineteenth-century emotions of wonder and surprise...in fact, that we shall experience an old world in a new way." --The Boston Globe
"A terrific read...Vernon seems able to write with fluency and authority-and at times with delicacy and profundity." --Los Angeles Times Book Review

Autoren-Porträt von John Vernon
John Vernon is a novelist, memoirist and critic whose novels have explored both real and imagined signature moments in American history, from John Wesley Powell's 1869 voyage of discovery through the Grand Canyon in The Last Canyon, to an 1872 confab between the mother and father of American poetry, Emily Dickinson and Walt Whitman, in Peter Doyle, to Billy the Kid's 1881 escape from the Lincoln County jail in Lucky Billy, to Baby Doe Tabor's years of exile in a Leadville, Colorado mining shack in All for Love: Baby Doe and Silver Dollar. Two of his books have been named New York Times Notable Books of the Year, and he has been awarded two National Endowment for the Arts grants. His work has appeared in Harper's, Poetry, The Paris Review, American Poetry Review, The Nation, The Los Angeles Times, and many other magazines, journals and newspapers, and he often reviews new novels and memoirs for The New York Times Book Review.
