A Romantic Comedy by N. Richard Nash
At the time of a paralyzing drought in the American West, we discover a girl whose father and two brothers are worried as much about her becoming an old maid as they are about their dying cattle. Every possible scheme to marry her off is without success. Nor is there any sign of relief from the dry heat. But into their midst comes a picaresque character with a mellifluous tongue and the most grandiose notions a man could imagine. He claims to be a rainmaker! And he promises rain for only $100! Silly idea though it is, he is so refreshing, the family consents. The rainmaker turns his magic on the girl and persuades her she has a very real beauty of her own. Rain does come, and so does love.
