In her lifetime Calamity Jane was the most famous woman in the world, and her name still evokes the spirit of the WIld West. She has been a character in countless dime novels, television shows, and feature films, and yet all of them were largely fabricated bearing no resemblence to her actual life. In this series on Calamity Jane, we hope to rectify that. In the following episodes we will profile her REAL life, and find that truth is far wilder than fiction.
In part two of our series, we follow a newly orphaned Jane as she navigates the politics of being a part of the Rolling Scum and her transition into military scout. Including original research by Sovereign Syre, we delve into some theories about what Jane was doing during her "missing years."
