One woman's costly decision will touch a lifetime of hearts.Born at the turn of the century, Elisabeth Grace LeRoy longs for something more in her life. Something only an eternal love can offer. It is a love she encounters at last--one that promises to fill her passionate heart completely and that calls forth her utmost in return. In response, Elisabeth makes the commitment that will shape her entire life: a decision to follow Christ always, no matter the cost. So begins a remarkable love story--a legacy of faith that weaves together two world wars, the Great Depression, and deep personal sorrows as the dramatic background for displaying the courage, grace, joy, and far-reaching impact of a life lived truly and fully for God.
Though None Go With Me is a book that is not soon forgotten. I found myself thinking about the characters all week long. If you've ever wondered why Christians sometimes seem to suffer even more than unbelievers, this book offers a hopeful look at why. My own faith was strengthened as I walked with Elisabeth through the trials of her life. A book that is written with the classic literary quality of Catherine Marshall's Christy, Though None Go With Me is peopled with wonderful, timeless characters. One of the best books I've read in years.

This book has been an inspiration to me and my walk with Christ. It has inspired me to want to dig deeper in the Bible and to want to get to know Him so much more. Elisabeth demonstrates how we are to depend upon God in all our struggles. Yes, at times she didn't, but she always looked to Him to see what He was teaching her through every trial in her life. He is our strong-hold and she had to depend on Him and trust Him. Her commitment was just amazing and we should all strive to be molded like Christ.

This book has made an incredible impact on my life, it completely changes your focus on why you are handed lifes challenges. Elizabeth, the main character remains a true believer in God, no matter what crises arise, and many do. If you liked the Left Behind series, This will definately spark your interest! A MUST READ!
Remarkable

This book will change your life, I promise. Even if you are not a Christian, you will be moved by the classic, universal literary structure of a heroine who decides to be a better person, experiences nothing but hardship because of it, but ultimately finds reward (think Jerry Maguire). If you are already a Christian, you will be inspired to even more passion in your faith.Aside from that, it's some of Jenkins' best work ever. I was in tears by the third chapter (and I'm a guy) and could barely see the pages at the end. I've heard that a movie is being discussed; I can only hope.
