Stephanie Brush, from Books in Motion, gave another wonderful performance in reading this audio book.
The book is nearly a history lesson in itself. Jeanne Williams wrote in so many historic details it kept me going to the Net to research the "happenings". From women's suffrage, laying of the continental railroad, political references, migration and treatment of Native Americans, as well as the immigration of Mexican workers. I love the stories of settling this nation and this was a real delight. It had the appropriate number of black hatted villains and white hatted heroes. People who cared about each other with little thought of themselves. It's what and how this nation was built. Too bad we have lost so much of that feeling.
Do pick up this wonderful novel and enjoy a bit of the past. You won't be disappointed.
