Recently recovered after being lost for nearly fifty years, this revealing memoir of a Montana childhood at the turn of the century invites readers into the life of a Western horse ranch. Recently discovered after being lost for nearly fifty years, this memoir of a Montana childhood at the turn of the century invites readers into the life of a Western horse ranch. Lost for almost half a century and never before published, When Montana and I Were Young is a remarkable primary account of a child&;s life in the early part of the twentieth century. Margaret Bell (1888&;1982) was a rancher and horse breaker whose memoir tells the story of a frontier childhood on the high plains of Montana and Canada. Hers was not a typical childhood. Bell was barely seven when her mother died, and her stepfather, Hedge Wolfe, moved Bell and her three younger half-sisters far from their nurturing grandmother to the Canadian plains and a life of extreme poverty, hardship, and abuse.
