How I Won My Wife in a Cincinnati Train Tale

A memoir recounts a Boston hardware clerk’s ride from Cincinnati to Cleveland in 1875. After intervening to shield a young woman from a drunken suitor, the narrator exchanges seats, meets the woman again, falls in love, and the couple wed on their first anniversary as he becomes Melbourne and Age’s partner in Cleveland. The tale blends romance with a vivid portrait of era commerce and social mores.
