I thoroughly enjoy Gilbert Morris' books. They are both interesting and exciting. I like the way he includes personal salvation experiences for his characters. I own all 40 volumes of the Winslow family by Gilbert Morris as will as all of Three of the Appomattox Saga Collection books 1-10. I started several of these books late at night an finished them in the wee hours of morning because they are compelling adventure books.

Awe inspiring and historically accurate. A true snapshot of a war wherein both sides felt they were serving God and yet both had opposite opinions about freedom and slavery. This novel makes one rethink attitudes of prejudice and why the North, altlhough prejudiced against the AfricanAmerican yet the South was indeed of varied opinions of the value of a human being. Some southerners loved their slaves and others had the NAZI mentality. Makes one question the sense of war wherein one group of human beings justifies killing another group without complete knowledge and putting the "cause" above the value of human life. I believe this may be why Jesus did not take sides against the persecuting Romans but rather the His country's religious elite.
