"Valle Verde" by Shirley Chance Yarbro is, by far, her best book yet! It is a terrific sequel to, and even better than, "Beneath the Canopy". I really enjoyed the change from settings, and really liked the real American history put into it. This book would make a great movie! And I am truly looking forward to Mrs. Yarbro's next release(s). I absolutely recommend this book to you readers who have read "Beneath the Canopy".

This is an excellent sequel to "Beneath the Canopy". This book is full of history and romance. Old southern "prim and proper" aristocracy meets the wild west in this one. New characters are introduced, and you will become attached to them quickly. Shirley Chance Yarbro has done a lot of research on the Apache Indians and how the railroad came west to Texas. I highly recommend this book! I have ordered the next book in this series, "Shadows Over New Orleans". I can't wait till it arrives!

"Valle Verde", by Shirley Chance Yarbro, is a story of how peoples' lives can become caught up between history and progress. The author did some good research on the Apache Indians and tells of how the railroad first came to west Texas.
She also tells how greed can bring grief and hardships to innocent people. The story changes locales several times, and that adds interest. All in all, I found it very worthwhile reading.
