This review is from: Land of the Shadow (The Appomattox Saga, Book 4) (Paperback)

I really enjoyed this book. The main characters were unique, yet believable, and because they were photographers, they provided an unusual, though sometimes graphic, perspective on the Civil War. Number four in a series about the Rocklin family, this book builds on another branch of the family tree (the Bristol's), while continuing the touching story of Clay Rocklin and Melora Yancy. I especially appreciated the theme of love and forgiveness that ran throughout the book. If you enjoy Christian historical fiction, this is among the best.
