Sarah, Plain and Tall
It took all of her courage to come and all of her love to stay
Set around the turn of the century. Jacob, a widowed farmer with two small children, places an ad in a paper for a new wife. The ad is answered by a spinster in Maine, who writes letters to them and describes herself as 'plain and tall.' And she takes a trip to Jacob's farm to see if she can make a difference.
