Love in the West

Chris Enss gives readers a fresh look at love in Love Lessons from the Old West: Wisdom from Wild Women during an era and in a region where strength and tenacity went hand in hand with heartbreak and romance.

This book is a fun, fast read of the entertaining biographies of some of the most romantic and legendary relationships in the Old West. Enss paints sympathetic portraits of women across a broad spectrum of society, including Geronimo’s wives, frontier madams and gunfighters’ wives. She shows how the best love lessons come from those not afraid to break the rules.
