Enjoy a journey of Little House on the Prairie meets Gone with the Wind... Six-year-old Albertine was kept out of school to work with her father creating the family's 1913 Montana homestead. Her abusive childhood consists of relentless hardships to overcome. Only the joys of holidays like Christmas and her love of calling square dances sustain her hopes and dreams. On rare trips to Great Falls, she visits Charlie Russell's art studio and regales him with Indian tales learned from the families bartering. These visits bring temporary relief from her harsh conditions, and she yearns to live in the big city. In her late teens, she toils with her father on neighboring homesteads for half the men's pay-her wages going straight to her father. Her only reward: the men nickname her Bert.At age nineteen, Bert leaves the homestead for the city to earn money to send home. Freedom agrees with her as she enjoys new adventures. Competing in a man's world, however, totally blocks her from being hired as a square dance caller. But Bert refuses to give up on her dream job. In the meantime, she finds love, motherhood, and life as a landlady with unexpected obstacles that bring new challenges and another name change-Bertie.From the start of a turbulent childhood, can Bertie triumph over the constant twists life throws her way?
