5.0 out of 5 stars Good Medicine, March 9, 2005

This review is from: A Gathering of Hope (Paperback)

Helen Hayes chronicles her journey through the greatest difficulties of her life, including the death of her husband, in small excepts throughout this book. The rest of the book is filled with inspirational quotations that helped carry her through those difficult times. Ms. Hayes' exceptional intelligence and rich literary experience sets this book far and above other inspirational collections. A note: Ms. Hayes is addressing trauma vs. day-to-day living. This is more of a handbook to take to the hospital than chicken soup.

If you like to read this genre, this is the one book that you HAVE to include in your library. If you don't normally read this type of book, this is one book in the category that you will want to read.

This review is from: A Gathering of Hope (A Doubleday-Galilee Book) (Paperback)

This book, A Gathering of Hope, by Helen Hayes contains many familiar words of inspiration that are most probably familiar to you, but to have them in one small book is heartwarming, comforting, and convenient. It is a book to cherish and enjoy. There are poems, scripture passages, and details of Helen Hayes' life that one can identify with and enjoy browsing through.
