Lorraine Heath | Intrigued with Anglomania

When I first began taking my Texas ladies to England's shores, I had to do
quite a bit of research about the Victorian period in order to understand how
things would go for them. One of the best research books I found was How to
Marry an English Lord. It went into quite a bit of detail about American
heiresses' obsession with marrying English lords. And English lords, many of
whom had fallen into an impoverished state as a result of changing times
changing their income, were quite happy to provide these ladies with a title in
exchange for a nice settlement.
