Hearts West on the Publisher’s Weekly, Wall Street Journal and USA Today Best Sellers List
TwoDot, an imprint of Globe Pequot Press, is proud to announce that the book Hearts West: True Stories of Mail Order Brides on the Frontier has been listed as a best seller for Publisher’s Weekly and USA Today. 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 book provides an up-close look at the leap of faith these men and women were willing to take.
Enss has written more than two dozen books on the subject of women of the Old West. Some of the books Chris Enss has written are Frontier Teachers: Stories of Heroic Women of the Old West, Object Matrimony: The Risky Business of Mail Order Matchmaking on the Frontier, and Gilded Girls: Women Entertainers of the Old West. Her latest title is Love Lessons from the Old West: Wisdom from Wild Women. You can visit the author online at: www.chrisenss.com.
