leave Lowell behind. Their exit ticket is Mr. Mercer, who is seeking cultured women to travel to Seattle, Washington and become brides in the hopes of "taming" the wild West.
After a harrowing trip to the West (which takes the women with another dozen or so traveling companions and Mr. Mercer the long way around down through Panama and then back up to Washington State) the group arrives to find a couple of HUNDRED men interested in finding brides! But that doesn't mean it's all sunshine and roses. Again, each for very different reasons, Josephine, Dovey and Sophronia remain unmarried for years, and each takes a very different path toward independence. However, the Suffrage Movement and the befriending of Susan B. Anthony unites them in a cause that they can all agree on, and in the end, they all find happiness where they least expected it. A great Audible listen!
