About the Book:
Amanda Pearson is on an epic journey in 1837 to become a Quaker missionary in the western wilderness, but the trip may kill her. Also included is the sequel set eighteen years later as Little Fawn also pursues a missionary quest to the Nez Perce Indians.
My Thoughts:
When I picked up Woman
of Courage, I must say that I was pleasantly surprised by the adventurous
story that waited between these pages. First off, by the synopsis I knew going
in that this book would be about a Quaker woman wanting to be a missionary to
the Nez Perce Indians. Quaker stories are hit or miss with me, I just recently
finished up a really good Quaker series so I was interested in this story. And
I must say what a story.
This is the third book this year that has vividly put my
mind’s eye in the story- when they were cold I was cold, when they were scared
I was scared for them, the synopsis does not even scratch the surface of what
this adventure is all about. And bonus: the sequel novella, Woman of Hope which continues the story
some years later is included.
I also wanted to point out that the book is presented in a
really pretty way which would make for a great gift for a reader in your life
or for yourself.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from Barbour
Publishing and was under no obligation to post a review. All views and opinions
