This review is from: Glory (Brides of the West 1872, No. 4 / HeartQuest) (Paperback)

After the wonderful story of "Hope" I tore into "Glory" like a hungry wolf tears into its prey. Glory, a sheltered mountain girl, is forced to build a life on her own after her Poppy dies. With a bagful of gold and no change of clothes, she sets out in search of a new life. Far too naive for the cold world before her, she ends up on the run from a greedy uncle who wants her gold -- and who will kill her to get it. When she manages to latch on (however unwillingly) to a wagonneer named Jackson and a group of teenaged mail order brides, things REALLY get interesting. In her travels and adventures, Glory grows into a beautiful young woman with an unshakeable faith -- but will her faith be enough to win the heart of the handsome wagonneer? Copeland's "Glory" was glorious. This one's a MUST READ.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Read, December 11, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Glory (Brides of the West 1872, No. 4 / HeartQuest) (Paperback)

I thought that this book was a wonderful book. I liked Jackson, the wagon master, he seems like a strong, proud man. I also liked Glory. Sometimes as new Christians we all have the same question as she did. I kept you on your seat when the story took a turn in events. It also kept you wondering who Jackson would eventually end up with. This book showed a woman can do just as well or sometimes better when it comes to "man's work" (I think that this is only true in certian situations and conditions).
