The Loom of the Desert is a novel about the life of ordinary Americans living on the territory of Nevada's deserts, where the author spent her childhood. It tells about the hard destinies of desert men and women, their life, joy, love, sorrow, sins, and death. The protagonists are emigrants, desperately seeking a better life, prospectors fruitlessly wandering to seek treasures, the life of Indians, unfairly treated by the whites. It is an excellent picture of the American Society in the Great Basin in the second time of the 19th century.
