Captivating read

A tale that captures interest and keeps you in the moment, feeling not only the emotions of the characters but also the lives they are living. Filled with rich historical detail, the book educates without interrupting the flow of the story. Also check out Durham's second book, Walk in the Light, a story that catches the reader up in the life of Rachel Calhoun and the Revolutionary War with a personal story of growth and discovery. Another historical jewel.
