In the rugged American West of the 1880s, life was hard, and women were scarce. But what if the love of your life was just a letter away? Tonight, we dive into the fascinating, often misunderstood world of mail-order brides. These were women who dared to leave everything behind, crossing continents for a chance at a new beginning and a husband they'd only known through correspondence. Join us as we uncover their extraordinary courage, their untold stories of hope, hardship, and the surprising romances that built the frontier.
