MY THOUGHTS

This collection of 9 books by 9 authors gave me a new perspective about the railroad during the late 1800's and of it's history. 

You can tell the characters and their stories were created with talent and from the heart of each of the authors. 

I can not choose a favorite story because they each touched my heart. They revealed bravery, faith, trust, forgiveness and last but not least love. All the characters were on a path set by God to find their soul mates?

The authors weaved scriptures through the telling of their stories. These can be more than helpful with our daily walk with God.

Now I would like to thank each one of these authors for a splendid job of putting these stories together, each story compliments, not competes with, the other. 

I rated this book a 5 out of 5 stars.

I received an ebook copy of this book from Barbour Publishers via NetGalley for an honest review. I was in no way compensated for this review it is my honest opinion.

NetGalley Review Coming Soon, Newton and Polly A Novel of Amazing Grace by Jody Hedlund

Now Currently Reading, and Review is coming soon! 

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound 
that saved a wretch like me. 
I once was lost, but now am found…

Now remembered as the author of the world's most famous hymn, in the mid-eighteenth century as England and France stand on the brink of war, John Newton is a young sailor wandering aimlessly through life. His only duty is to report to his ship and avoid disgracing his father—until the night he hears Polly Catlett's enchanting voice, caroling. He's immediately smitten and determined to win her affection.

An intense connection quickly forms between the two, but John's reckless spirit and disregard for the Christian life are concerns for the responsible, devout Polly. When an ill-fated stop at a tavern leaves John imprisoned and bound, Polly must choose to either stand by his side or walk out of his life forever. Will she forfeit her future for the man she loves?

Step back through the pages of history, to uncover the true love story behind a song that continues to stir the hearts and ignite the faith of millions around the globe.
