In April 1908 a self-made woman physician in Chicago is told she is in the first stage of tuberculosis and must leave the city. Kept as a running journal, her account follows the outdoor life she adopts instead of a sanatorium: camping, tramping and making do across the American West, with animals, chores and strangers met along the way.
