One of My Ten Favorites!

Tomorrow is a River is on my "Ten Most Favorite Books" list. I first read this book probably 25 years ago and have re-read it at different stages in my life since then. It appeals to me on so many levels - the history in it appeals to me as a middle school history teacher, the gentle romance appeals to that part of me that enjoys happy endings, and the theme of Christian healing appeals to me as a Christian Scientist. This book is uplifting, inspiring, and a joy to read! Karen Terrell, author of Blessings: Adventures of a Madcap Christian Scientist

An unforgettable book!

I live near the Tomorrow River in Wis and I was lucky enough to find this book in a local second hand store, signed by the author! I was asking God to give me a sign that angels really do exist...and that is when I found this book by chance. This book is about so many things, it is about the history of Wisconsin and how the Indians lived here off the land. It is about the inner strenght many women have but do not know it. This book would make a great movie. It has been a long time since I enjoyed reading a book this much, not to mention that it remains an excellent reference source for Wisconsin and Civil War history. Do not start reading this book until you can devote at least a day to it, because it is hard to put down. Most of all the reader comes away with a feeling that YES, angels, God, and miracles really do exist....even when horrible things happen.

A Classic!

There has been only one other time in my life, when I read a book all night long, only to call in sick to work the next day in order to finish it! I esteem this novel right up there with "Gone With the Wind". It's a wonderful story! I just love it!

Couldn't stop reading it

I teach history at a private high school. Stumbled on this excellent book about 12 years ago because a student of mine brought it to class from home when we were studying the U.S. Civil War. That 15-year-old student was so captivated by the book she didn't even realize how much she was learning. I got hooked on it too, so I must have asked if I could borrow it. I do remember that I took it home and read it in a day. Then I ordered it for the school's library.The story is extremely well told. The history is accurate: fiction based on truth. Was just searching for another book and Tomorrow Is A River came up on the list. I'm taking the time to review it because I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a good read, or is interested in the mid-1800s or the history of Wisconsin. It really should be in every high school library.
