Don't know when I have enjoyed, or been so caught up in a book as I have been with this one. Loved it. Almost 500 pages of great reading, good research into the history of the period, and wonderful characters. I can't wait to read the rest of this series about the family who came here in poverty as immigrants. I just couldn't put it down and read only at night from about 5PM to 9:30Pm and finished it in three nights. Great reading!! Genny Sikes

History marries fiction - I could not put it down.....
