When Indians kill her husband on the trail to Kentucky, Livi Talbot and her two young children bury him then continue their trek on the Wilderness Road to what David promised would be their new home.... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Someone recommended this novel to me, as a 'prairie' romance, a novel about pioneers and the hardships they faced when settling the American frontier.What can I say? I loved this book, A place called home, is the story of Livi and Reid, and the trouble they must face with conflicts with Indians, disease, death, and prejudice.While some elements, such as the frontiersman's easy acceptance of Reid as a "half-breed," and Livi's daughter's quick recovery from Small Pox were a tad on the unbelievable side, overall, this novel is wonderful!Would recommend this book to readers who love Americana romance.
This is love

Elizabeth Grayson is a master at historical detail and bringing her characters appear real to the reader. From the start, you will wait with held breath as the heroines husband is murdered in front of her and her young children. Then to have to continue the rugged trail to make a new home out west took more strength than most women would possess, especially when that woman is pregnant and one of her youngsters develops smallpox which scares any decent help away. It is a joy to read!
