Lead by Donna Nicely

In this illuminating and unusual book, Sandra Day O’Connor tells,
with her brother, Alan, the story of the Day family, and of growing
up on the harsh yet beautiful land of the Lazy Branch in
Arizona. Laced throughout these stories about three generations
of the Day family, and everyday life on the Lazy B, are the lessons
Sandra and Alan learned about the world, self-reliance, and
survival, and how the land, people, and values of the Lazy B shaped
them. This fascinating glimpse of life in the Southwest in the last
century recounts an important time in American history and
provides an enduring portrait of an independent young woman on
the brink of becoming one of the most prominent figures in the U.S
