SUMMARY
"WANTED: A girl who will love, honest, true and not sour;a nice little cooing dove, and willing to work in flour." Desperate to strike it rich during the Gold Rush, thousands of men traveled West to the emerging frontier, where they outnumbered women twelve to one. Only after they arrived did some of them realize how much they missed female companionship. Hearts West brings to life true stories of mail-order brides of the Gold Rush era. Some found soul mates; others found themselves in desperate situations. Complete with the actual hearts-and-hands personal advertisements that began some of the long-distance courtships, this fascinating book provides an up-close look at the leap of faith these men and women were willing to take.Enss, Chris is the author of 'Hearts West True Stories Of Mail Order Brides On The Frontier', published 2005 under ISBN 9780762727568 and ISBN 076272756X.
