Description
Whether it's riding bikes, catching snakes, or sliding down banisters, Essie Spreckelmeyer just can't quite make herself into the ideal woman her hometown and her mother expect her to be. It's going to take an extraordinary man to appreciate her joy and spontaneity --- or so says her doting oilman father. Sadly, such a man doesn't appear to reside in Corsicana, Texas. So, when 1894 brings her thirtieth birthday, Essie makes a list of all the eligible bachelors in town, closes her eyes, twirls her finger ... and picks one.
