In the latter years of the 19th Century citizens of the town of Mendon, Michigan were captivated by the achievements and self-promotion of one of their more colorful citizens. Young Emma Peek, a horsewoman of impeccable standards and ability, married into the town's founding family and thereafter became known throughout the world as "Madame Marantette - Queen of the Saddle". A young student on a library assignment traces the accomplishments of this skilled horsewoman from her hometown to performances before the royalty of Europe.
