    About this ebook

    Mail Order Groom - Going To Meet Lee, is about a newspaper editor dissatisfied with his life in the Big Apple. He decides to head to Nebraska.

    Mail Order Groom: Dr. Westcott, The Dark Cowboy, is about a distraught doctor who can take no more of sickness and death in cholera-ridden New York City, and he answers an ad in the Mail Order Brides section of the newspaper.

    The Overweight Bride & Her Thin Husband - A woman who finds that her mother’s overfeeding causes her weight gain, literally flees to a less than appetizing offer from a farmer in Fresno.

    The Pregnant Woman From Manchester - A woman from Manchester manages to escape her abusive husband, just as she learns she’s pregnant; and trying to get as far away as she can, becomes a mail order bride to a farmer called Josh, in California.
