An historical novel based on a resilient woman with aspirations to achieve a place in a new society. A child from Scotland, Jenny arrived with her family in Valparaiso, Chile, in 1894. This courageous woman came of age after hardships and family tragedies. With a growing family of her own, she followed her husband to different mining camps, some of them owned by the American companies of Kennecott and Anaconda Copper Mining high in the Andes Mountains.
