Review
""A Tenderfoot Bride" should be a welcome addition to the files of Americana, for it contains within its covers a truer picture of ranch life in the West than a dozen or more ''Western stories'' bearing all too plainly the dime novel brand."--"New York Times"
"She has given us more than . . . history, for one senses the writer''s personality--a growth through the delights and trials of existence among elemental conditions to a broad vision of life and its responsibilities. Therein lies the rare charm of the book."--"Bookman"
From the Back Cover
Clarice E. Richards of Dayton, Ohio, was a tenderfoot when in 1900 she moved to a ranch in Elbert County, Colorado, east of Pikes Peak. She was the bride of Jarvis Richards, a former Congregational minister from Vermont. It was an unlikely place for these two cultured easterners to land, but Clarice, possessing curiosity and a lively sense of humor, became thoroughly westernized as she witnessed 'the ebb of the tide of the wild, lawless days, ' succeeded by the more pastoral eras of the sheepman and farmer.
