Tired of her controlling stepparents, headstrong heiress Annie Howard goes west and encounters a series of adventures--including a blazing prairie fire, a sinking riverboat, the kidnapping of her beloved servant, and, of course, romance. When The Prairie Bride, a classic dime novel, was first published in 1869 by the extremely popular publishing house of Beadle & Adams, it was a best-seller. Western history fans will delight in the novel's whimsical presentation of a claim fight over a homestead--perhaps even more charming now than it was in the nineteenth century. It is with great pleasure that we bring this classic series of Beadle & Adams dime novels to a new generation. The themes of the American spirit and determination, of courage and bravery, and of friendship, love, and honor are timeless.Thomas, Henry J. is the author of 'Prairie Bride or the Squatter's Triumph A Reprint of the Classic Beadle Dime Novel', published 2006 under ISBN 9780762740833 and ISBN 0762740833.
