Alaska

So Real, So Vivid The Story Lines, So Adequate With "Visiting" Alaska, So Inspirational Within Lives, Take Your Pick Of Which Parts To Learn From And Enjoy!!!!!!!

A Magnificent Tale

I found this collection of novelas to be magnificent. I didn't want to put it down. At one point I acutally cried. The characters become so real to you that you are moved with their pain and elated in their victories. I also found them spiritually uplifting. Now I just wish I could go see the places that were so wonderfully discribed.

Alaska

I do not read alot but I could not put this book down. I live in Alaska and have been in the same place as the charcter in the book. I liked the spiritual content too. Differently better than the trashy love novels you can buy.

IDENTIFY WITH THE CHARACTERS

I liked the second story the best, because it really made me ask myself "What would I have done if I were in her situation? Would I have put God first? Would I have denied myself a strong opportunity like that because God said NO?" But I liked all four of them. They were realistic romance but not mushy or improper. A MUST-READ...YOU WON'T FORGET THIS BOOK AND (HOPEFULLY) THE LESSONS YOU LEARNED THROUGH PRACTICAL EXAMPLES OF SUBMISSION TO GOD.

It is so real physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

I have been to Alaska, and have 2 sisters living there, one of whom has lived as the early characters did. She even dreamed of the Iditarod! Alaska is a tough place to live spiritually but by God's grace anyone can find His peace by yielding to His gentle persuasion. Ms. Peterson seems to catch this, plus the history and infinite beauty of the state juxtaposed against man's innate rebellion and desire to go it alone. I highly reccommend this book

Wonderful romance about three generations of Alaskans

Do you like romance? Do you love adventure? Do you like history? Do you love God? I do and they are all here. It is really four books in one, about three generations of the same family at different historic moments in Alaska's history. I'm a sucker for romance novels (and belive it or not, I'm a guy).
