This was a disappointment. It is a Christian historical fiction novel set at the time of the Civil War. It did a good job of portraying both Northern and Southern perspectives, but clearly (and strongly) favored the North, likening the South to Egypt and Pharaoh and painting them as "unChristian" or "ungodly."

Excellent book = I couldn't put it down. Great heroine, realistic characters and feelings and a great underlying message about the power of having trust in the Lord.

A historical novel, written in 1st person, as the diary of a young woman living in Richmond during the Civil War. I enjoyed the story.

Civil War story. Story involves not only the battle fields, but also the women, slaves and households left behind.

This is one of my favorite books.
I am now reading the second in the series, and it seems even better than the first.
