For those fans that like adventure, history,romance, and Texas, this one's for you. I have read the sequel too and it is just as good. The protaganist, Jerusaleum is one brave woman. Being a Texan, it was so cool to read about real Texas heroes that were woven into the story. And this is a Christian story also, so there's no gratuitous violence, sex, or language. This was my first Gilbert Morris book and I was captivated by it. It just goes to prove, you can tell a good story without "shock" value. Bravo for Mr. Morris! I can't wait to read the 3rd book in this series.

This is a novel that will encourage women to dig their feet in and find courage, patience, and strength from deep insided yourself. The characters come to life and the hardships are ones that make you feel greatful for the pioneering spirit of our countries founding families. The history that is woven into the novel is eyeopening. It became real, not just American History...you can feel the tension, and the relief.

A truly inspirational historical novel which is part of a trilogy about the beginnings of Texas. Recommend it to anyone who is interested in the strength of character and the belief in God as a new land is settled.

I really enjoy Gilbert Morris' work with history and putting characters in and making it believable. Bringing the character of Clay and Jerusalem to life and seeing the pains of breaking new ground in a wild place. He is extremely talented and a wonderful read
