Customer Reviews

One of my all time favourite books and authors

I have all Helen van Slyke's books. i have had this one for 10 years or so. It is unputdownable, you will get lost in the lives of Elizabeth, her friends, family and children. It charts her life from birth to end and continues on in the sequel Mixed Blessing. HVS is one of the most wonderful writers. She is a marvelous storyteller, she has clarity and depth. I wish her books were still more available to people. You will love this book and her others.

What a great story!

This is the type of book you can get lost in. The story is mainly about Elizabeth, her loves, her children, and her friends. Her growth is tremendous from an idealistic young woman to a woman who has experienced many of life's joys along with sadness. She always perseveres, though.

Golden for its time

A beautiful story of a determine woman with the chips stacked against her. What a classy lady
