A Feast of Facts and Intrigue
This hefty tome is comprehensive and cram-packed with details. But fear not. You know the basics. You know the outcome. You know many of the key events. And yet this book is a gripping, edge-of-the-seat page turner.

When the Heart Cries (Sisters of the Quilt, Book 1)
Cindy Woodsmall
WaterBrook Press, 2006
Looking forward to the rest of the series!
What a gut-wrenching and provacotive tale. The ending holds realism, yet hope. I appreciate Woodsmall's handling of delicate subjects, but I would not recommend this for young readers.

How much can a man love his country? How much can he love his son? His God? Can justice prevail when man cannot? What is forgiveness? Redemption? Grace? To consider all these elements in one novel is not possible. Or is it?
"Cry, the Beloved Country" is all these ...

The Amazing Lives of Wolves
The author is a master storyteller; combined with his narrative, the information about the social lives of wolves was indeed fascinating and compelling to read. The folly of man is also a point of interest certainly worth some contemplation....
