At least, it\u2019s my favorite; good reviews are an art form, Web sites a modern marvel, but somehow my best-loved books have come directly from someone else\u2019s recommendation, and the enthusiasm of those conversations is a pleasure in itself. It\u2019s hard to overstate the importance of this particular chain of connection. When you think about it, most of the world\u2019s great religions are based on book recommendation.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I recently learned about the book I want to recommend to you today via someone whom I met while reporting a story. He, in turn, had been recommended the title by a horse trainer on a film set. Where that guy heard of it, I can\u2019t say, but the chain is doubtless long\u2014dating back, at any rate, to 1976, when\u00a0Shameless Hussy Press published\u00a0<span id=\"productTitle\" class=\"a-size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Calamity-Janes-Letters-Her-Daughter\/dp\/0915288273\" target=\"_blank\">C<em>alamity Jane\u2019s Letters to Her Daughter<\/em><\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>This book is <em>allegedly<\/em>\u00a0formed of letters found after Martha Jane Cannary\u2019s death. According to legend, the famed Wild West heroine taught herself to write in order to communicate with the daughter she\u2019d given up for adoption, which explains the untutored spelling and grammar. But whether or not the book is genuine\u2014many historians believe it unlikely\u2014it\u2019s wonderful: a historical document of the \u201cOld West,\u201d \u00a0yes, but also a very moving story of motherhood and real struggle.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Calamity Jane was apparently known to be something of a fabulist\u2014the brief autobiography she dictated in her lifetime is full of tall tales, and her professional storytelling was colorful\u2014but even the known facts of her life were extraordinary. She was probably <em>not<\/em> involved in any Indian wars, and <em>didn\u2019t<\/em> attack Wild Bill Hickok\u2019s murderer with a cleaver. She may or may not have been a Pony Express driver, nurse, cook and saloon girl; she was probably a sometime prostitute; she was certainly a scout and a famed performer in Buffalo Bill\u2019s traveling show, struggled with alcoholism, and died in her early fifties. Oh, and she also nursed smallpox patients in Deadwood and took the reins of a runaway stagecoach after the driver was shot. In other words, she lived hard, and she lived in a different America entirely. This book is a document of that, fiction or non, with all the ugliness and hate and adventure and change it implies. Calamity Jane herself wrote, \u201cThey are telling awful things about me. None of it is true.\u201d At the end of the day, as she knew, it was all relative.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I loved it. I hope you will read it, and if you do, I hope you will pass it along to someone else.\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"blog-copy\">\n<p><em>Sadie Stein is contributing editor of\u00a0<\/em>The Paris Review<em>, and the\u00a0<\/em>Daily<em>\u2019s correspondent.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Another person is the best way to learn about a book.
