I have not yet read this book, as copies seem to be hard to come by at this point. I believe it is going to be a must have for connoisseurs and collectors of this genre. I am blessed with the privilege of acquaintanceship with some of the members of the latest generation of the family fictionalized in Mrs. Henson's work. I cannot wait for the opportunity to catch a glimpse of the ancestry involved in producing these fine human beings. Will revisit to properly review the novel as soon as I can lay hands on it! And good luck to you in finding it, fellow reader.
A wonderful book

I picked up a copy last week and spent most of my time reading it. The story of this family (a fictionalized story of a real family) is both fascinating and inspirational. The idea that what you become is not a result of your circumstances, but the result of how you react to those circumstances is a constant thread throughout the book. Reflecting on my own life, I find this to be true. Beyond that, it is great reading!
