Summary: "A Sagebrush Cinderella" by Max Brand is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. It tells the story of a young woman named Jacqueline "Jac" During, who is caught between the rugged realities of life in the American West and her romantic dreams inspired by the chivalric tales she reads. The book explores themes of identity, social roles, and the quest for self-acceptance amidst societal expectations. The plot follows Jac, a fiercely independent and tomboyish girl, who secretly longs for romance and adventure while feeling overshadowed by the beauty of others, particularly her rival, Dolly Maxwell. As she navigates her feelings for handsome cow-puncher Maurice Gordon, whom she dubs Sir Maurice de Gordon in her fantasies, she also encounters the scruffy yet intriguing Bill Carrigan. After a series of humorous and poignant events, including a chaotic dance hall scene where her identity takes center stage, Jac undergoes a transformative experience that leads her to embrace her individuality and self-worth.
