Journey Of The Heart: a true story

Journey Of The Heart-a true story is the first complete biography of Mary Bier (Mamie) Aguirre, "the little professor with the long brown ringlets," Arizona's first Spanish language instructor in the U of A. Amid the turmoil of Civil War, this petite Missouri belle fell in love with a handsome Mexican freighter. He didn't speak English, and she didn't speak Spanish, but their romance grew stronger in the untamed territories of New Mexico and Arizona. Experiencing a life of tragedy and triumph, Mamie retained a deep spiritual strength as she raised her three sons and taught in Arizona's first public schools. A feisty lady with an independent spirit, she is now recognized as a "Woman of Inspiration" in Arizona Women's Pavilion (Hall of Fame), Tucson.
