Ilustration To Books All Together in One Place (Kinship and Courage #1)

One of the incidents that made a profound impression upon the minds of all: the meeting of eleven wagons returning and not a man left in the entire train; all had died, and been buried on the way, and the women returning alone.
-from the journals of Ezra Meeker, 1852

Their lives would be tempered by adversity, expanded by faith, polished by perseverance.

For Madison "Mazy" Bacon, a young wife living in southern Wisconsin, the future appears every bit as promising as it is reassuringly predictable. A loving marriage, a well-organized home, the pleasure of planting an early spring garden--these are the carefully-tended dreams that sustain her heart and nourish her soul.

But when her husband of two years sells the homestead and informs her that they are heading west, Mazy's life is ripped down the middle like a poorly mended sheet forgotten in a midwestern storm. Her love is tried, her boundaries stretched, and the fabric of her faith tested. At the same time, she and eleven extraordinary women are pulled toward an uncertain destiny--one that binds them together through reluctance and longing and into acceptance and renewal.

Based on an actual 1852 Oregon Trail incident, All Together in One Place, Book One in the Kinship and Courage series, speaks to the strength in every woman and celebrates the promise of hope that unfailingly blooms amidst tragedy and challenge.

Notice Appertaining To Books All Together in One Place (Kinship and Courage #1)

I feel like after reading "These is my words," no woman pioneer story is ever going to be as good, but this book had potential. It just frustrated me, because I felt like it was underdeveloped, slow moving, and didn't get good(in my opinion) till the very end!! Worst part is, my library doesn't cary the next 3 books!! Now that is frustrating!

The central character, in love with her husband and their life on their farm, is suddenly confronted with the fact that he has sold the farm without consulting her and has committed them to going west in a covered wagon. So, starting from the powerlessness of woman under the legal and social systems of the time, the story moves to a treacherous trip west in which women prove themselves to be resourceful and resilient. Their ability to survive the dangers they encounter is largely through the

When i first started reading this book a while back, I found it to be very slow moving and put it back down. I decided to pick it up again a couple of weeks ago; I was up to page 100 when i stopped. It turned out it did engage me this time, and I became very interested in this true story of a group of women traveling west on their own after losing their husbands, brothers, etc. to illness on the way. They were true survivors. The author painted a very vivid picture of the women and their journey

I put off reading this for a long time afraid it would be too sad. It was sad in places but nothing so heavy. Not a light novel but sprinkled with wisdom and faith and hope enough to keep it from being depressing.

For book club. The author of this book never met a platitude she didn't like. The plot and some of the characters do pull the reader through this unevenly paced story, but not without preaching the Biblical virtues of patience and acceptance and piety throughout, and if that is appealing to some, so be it; this book was written for those who enjoy the heavy-handed religious lessons. For this reader, however, some of the dialogue was so treacly that it had to be eye-skimmed.A note of caution: the

Jane Kirkpatrick is a Christian author-and by this I mean she bring her religion into the story. Some more than others. I find this irritating, but this particular story was OK. It is about a group of settlers moving west to Oregon/California. They were all unknown to each other before the trip. During the trip illness decimated all the men and left the women to continue on alone. Through personal strength and determination these women joined forces and formed bonds with each other that enabled
