The story revolves around the character Lord Loveland, a British nobleman who decides to travel to America with the intention of finding a wealthy wife to help alleviate his financial troubles. The novel presents his encounters and interactions as he navigates the social dynamics of American society. The opening of the novel introduces Lord Loveland's dilemma regarding his financial situation and his mother's hopes for his future. As Loveland contemplates his options, he learns about an heiress named Lillah Mecklenburg who has spurned his advances, pushing him to consider seeking a bride in America instead.
