Mail Order Bride: The Victorian Orphan Girl, is a brand new and incredible love story about the strength and character of one orphaned woman who, facing a tough and extremely hard life in Victorian London, decides to go to California as a mail order bride. She runs out of money for the train ride after crossing the Atlantic and getting sick, but an unscrupulous conductor tells her she can hide in the cargo car as long as she remains out of sight. Almost dead close to the end of the journey because she hasn’t any money left to buy food, she doesn’t know if she’ll live to marry the rancher who is to be her husband.
