As the election of 1860 draws near and political tensions between North and South threatens to escalate into a full-scale war, Corrie Belle Hollister finds herself thrust into the political arena.
Her reputation as California's Woman Reporter and her vain attempts to help Colonel John Fremont in the presidential election of 1856 have brought her to the attention of the leaders of California's new Republican Party. And the handsome young political aide, Cal Burton, helps to convince Corrie that Lincoln and the party even the nation itself depend upon the influence she can wield through her speaking and writing.
Corrie firmly believes that slavery is wrong, and that she should do what she can to help Lincoln get elected. But mounting conflict within the Hollister clan and in the nation at large bring her to the realization that the decisions she makes could change her life forever.
Her Reputation Has Spread Beyond California. Is Politics Her Future. . .or Something Else?

Learning to follow God's path set for her.,
This review is from: Sea to Shining Sea (The Journals of Corrie Belle Hollister #5) (Paperback)
This fifth book in this series demonstrates how Corrie depends on God to guide her along the trail He set for her in her life. She learns some valuable lessons throughout the novel with a bit of adventure mixed in with it. As California's woman reporter in the late 1850s to early 1860s, Corrie gets the opportunity to pursue a rocky trail that God lays before her. She finds herself accepting positions related to politics, forever following the truth that she longs to keep priority in her life. Wonderfully intertwined plot with lessons for even the reader to ponder! I always find myself learning something new to think about when I read one of the eight books in this series! Very good!
