Very Happy Valley

This novel about a pioneer in Oregon is very well written. I was intrigued by the struggles encountered and the relationships formed. I don't know how else i could possible describe this novel without giving the magic of its discovery completely away. It was well written and quite a page turner. I highly reccomend it to those who enjoy stories of struggle and motivation.
