Even if you don't believe in reincarnation, this makes a fascinating read of Civil War-era lives. And if you can get thru it and *still* not believe in reincarnation, well ... <BG>. The endorsement by Bruce Goldberg is great; I'd also like to see more endorsement from someone in Millsboro. Perhaps in her sequel? I haven't read that yet.

If you have any interest in reincarnation or like a good detective story... read this book. The author does a great job of assembling the many regression sessions with the many people who are involved in this drama. You've got to read this book... you will not be disappointed!

As a native of the area the author investigated, and someone who believes the thesis she puts forward is possible, I found this book very disappointing. She had an opportunity to examine a unique situation but spent so much time in relating step by step research of the place name, she exposed the sloppy nature of her efforts and instead of establishing credibility proved she was over her head in this project which was self published. Had she solicted expert help and local historians she would had put forth a much more readable and exciting story. The content is worth reading but the book is tedious and frustrating.

This is an astonishing, true story. Dr. Marge Rieder discovered while regressing various patients that a group of them recalled past lives in the same Civil War era town of Millboro, Virginia. The curious thing is that they were able to verify a great deal of what came through their hypnotic regressions. And the personal bonds of that previous time seem to have been carried forward. Although past-life regressions are becoming more and more common, as far as I know this is the first time that a group has been regressed to the same time together. This book really grabbed me. It is well-written and very compelling. If you are interested in past lives, especially those centered around the Civil War, you should get this book.

Richard Salva--author of Soul Journey from Lincoln to Lindbergh [UNABRIDGED]

This book is about a group of people who have alledgedly been regressed through hypnosis therapy to previous lives during the Civil War period that all coincide in the town of Millboro, Virginia. It was quite good and had me convinced until the author/hynotist also became involved as one of the group that had been in this town. At that point, to me, the author lost credibility. It would have been much more believable had she kept her story out of the book.
