Book Description:
A Powerful Historical Drama Based on the Story Behind The Hymn "It Is Well With My Soul"

This historical novel opens on the eve of the Great Chicago Fire of 1871 and explores the resulting two-year drama, heartbreak, and redemption that shaped the life of one of America’s great hymn writers--Horatio Gates Spafford.

A poignant novel of relationships, Finding Anna follows Spafford and his wife, Anna, as they struggle to find common ground before their divided loyalties tear apart their marriage once and for all. What will it take for them to recover their faith--in God and each other? Is love powerful enough to bring them through the greatest tragedy of their lives?

In an account that adds little-known details to a well-known story, Schaub debuts the MUSIC OF THE HEART series with perhaps the most personally compelling of all Christian hymns--"It Is Well With My Soul."

A compelling historical novel about the the life and family of Horatio Gates Spafford who wrote the lyrics of the well-loved hymn: It is well with my soul. Very well written, interesting, really drew me into their lives. It starts with a terrifying account of running from the great Chicago fire. I enjoyed the great character sketches about the famous preacher D.L. Moody. The book makes we want to read the rest of her "Music of the Heart" series on great Christian hymns.

This is one of the saddest books I have ever read. If you like true stories, though, you might enjoy it.

A novel developed from the story behind the hymn, It Is Well With My Soul.
