The River's Daughter

 Bridget Crocker is the author of the auto-biographical novel called The River's Daughter. Bridget grew up in California. Her father was violent so her mother moved her and her little brother to Wyoming. They lived in a trailer house near the Snake River. Her mother married another man and they had a happy life together. When her Mom was 45 she underwent a drastic personality change. From an attentive and church going mother, she now had an inattentive and wild mother who took off with an eco-terrorist into the mountains. Bridget had a hard life. Sometimes she led wilderness hikes with her mother and her new man. She eventually trained to be a white water rapids guide on the Snake River. Later she and her boyfriend went to Africa and guided trips there. I enjoyed reading about her travels and all the rapids she went through.
