A Home in Drayton Valley by Kim Vogel Sawyer
(historical Christian fiction)
Tarsie Raines and her friends Joss and Mary Brubacher need to escape the terrible conditions of living in the tenements of New York City circa 1880. Tarsie dreams of heading west by wagon train and convinces her friends to join her in search of a better life in Kansas. Tragedy strikes along the way and difficult decisions have to be made. Hard lessons are learned about life, family, and faith.
I liked this book and appreciated the way the author dealt with the issue of racism. I found the plot a little thin at times and slightly unbelievable, but overall the story was good. It was a clean and enjoyable read.
My Rating: 3 out of 5 stars
