As expected
I really enjoyed this book. It was a surprise to read about a captive anxious to be back among the whites usually it they don't want to stay with whites again after living with the indians so a little different story then usual. I like any of the westerns with women in them and this one didn't disappoint me.
Great
Could not read it fast enough...very exciting..Recommended to any readers that enjoy history and sweet romance...Really a good series Read it now
Very Good. This is book 2 in the TexasTrail Series. There are six books in the series; two written by Darlene Franklin, two written by Susan Page Davis and two by Vickie McDonough. All six books tell the story of the Morgan family that settled in Texas in the 1800's. The first two books have been very, very good and I am really looking forward to reading the rest.
The life of our early pioneers is one we do not identify with very easily. The hardships they faced, the primitive conditions they lived under, the constant fears from all directions were so numerous and difficult, it is hard to imagine parents deciding to take their children into such situations. Having lived in Texas, this setting is of special interest to me. And, because of living in the south as a Christian, racial relationships and prejudices add to the special interest. I can understand the parents' continuing hope that their daughter would someday be returned to them, if indeed, she is still alive. The hopes and fears of the child as she matures is understandable and made believable in this story. I love seeing the sisters showing no prejudice and being willing to care for anyone no matter their race or background. Any parent who has lost a child would pray fervently that some one like the sisters would be available to care for the lost child. This book depicts the anxieties and the never-ending hope that anyone would have for a loved one who disappeared in such a way, and the unceasing prayer that the child would be cared for through the difficulties he/she would be facing. This story teaches us to prepare our children for difficulties, not only spiritually, but physically, so he/she would be able to fend for himself/herself in whatever circumstance should come. I have thoroughly enjoyed this series and recommend it. I am so glad the story of this lost girl was brought to conclusion and that we were not left hanging, wondering what became of her.
I accidentally read this book out of sequence, and read it first. Quitet frankly I am not sure if I would have read the rest of this series if I hadn't. I truly enjoyed this particular book but when I have read other mixed author series they seemed to seamlessly interwrite the books. These seemed much more separated ... except for having the last name Morgan and occassionally (in the other books) references to the Morgan horses, there were very few references between the books of characters which is something I personally always enjoy in series.
This book I truly enjoyed where it started out Ned finding Billie (Taabe Waipu) almost dead after escaping from being held captive for many years from the Indians. He was also accompanied by a number of Nuns that were going to be setting up a school They took her in an harbored her, I liked how kind they were, taught her to live once again in the "white" world, taught her about God ... and overall kindness at the risk of their own lives. It is a bit different than many other books and I think tha was part of the intrigue ... even different from other captive books, and I felt definitely worth reading.
I think this book takes one back to those times of how unsafe one had to feel, how vulnerable you were to the Indians ... it had to be frightening ... I know I thought alot about it afterwards ... and I hae read so many books in my lifetime, just something about this book kind of haunted me for a number of days... however, I have to admit I have order number 4, and will most likely preorder #5 & 6 ... have to see this darn storyline to the end now ...
