All three books in the Shiloh Legacy were wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. I love reading of different eras--gives you an understanding and appreciation for what our parents and grandparents lived through.

This my first book of this author. It was very enjoyable. I almost felt like I didn't want to put the book down. I couldn't wait to read volume II. I rate this book with 5 stars

This was my first book by this author. It took me a while to get into it but once I did I really enjoyed it. I got so caught up in the characters that I almost didn't want to read more because I kept feeling something bad was going to happen to my favorite ones. The injustice of racism in early 20th century America is vividly portrayed. Definitely a page turner.
Book one in the Shiloh Legacy, a terrific read... You'll want to read all of the Thoene Books. dg
This is the first time I have read this author, I will follow up with the rest of the series
The Thoene's have done it again. i have read all three of the books in this series and they are great. I am rereading them now.
This is a GREAT book - a historical Christian fiction about WWI.
Very good story following soldiers lives after returning from WW1.
In the Trenches of France, They Had Fought the War to End All Wars. But the Real Battle Had Just Begun.
From every conceivable culture, men joined together in foxholes to fight World War I the Great War that would bring the world together in peace, for all time.

Max Meyer, a Jew from New York; Ellis Warne, an Irish doctor's son from Ohio; Birch Tucker, an Arkansas farm boy even Jefferson Canfield, the son of a black sharecropper.
And as these men drew together in their common cause, the lives of their families became inextricably entwined. They prayed and hoped, wept and laughed and rejoiced as one when their sons and brothers and fiancés came home from the battlefield.
But even as the Armistice is declared, another battle rages on the undercurrents of racial, religious and cultural intolerance threaten the very foundations of the nation. Will there be any freedom any peace on the home front?

Actually, I never got around to reading this book, so it is BRAND NEW, but I've read others by this author and enjoyed them. Good historical fiction.
