Captivating storytelling

I truly enjoyed following Sarah’s life as an early American settler. I found myself smiling along with her joys and crying along with her many sorrows. Gail Combs Oglesby’s storytelling flows beautifully and immerses you in Sarah’s journey. I eagerly await the sequel coming to audible, as the narration was wonderfully executed.
