Commemorative Edition I'll Gather My Geese Hallie Crawford Stillwell |
Hallie Stillwell 1897–1997
The New York Times identified Hallie Stillwell (1897–1997) as a "rancher and a Texas legend." As readers of her autobiography know, she became a rancher because she married one, but the legendary status she earned on her own.
At the age of nineteen, Hallie decided to take a job teaching school in the remote border town of Presidio, Texas. Her father thought it a dangerous proposition and told her she was getting into a wild goose chase. She responded, "Then I'll gather my geese." After teaching for a year, she got a proposal from an old-fashioned rancher twice her age, Roy Stillwell. Hallie's escapades as a bride in the rough environs of the Big Bend ranch have appealed to thousands of readers. This sixth printing of I'll Gather My Geese is dedicated to her memory.
