Customer Reviews

More fabulous historical "fiction" from this fine author

As she did in her superb novel, "Ride the Wind", Ms. Robson once again gives us a fascinating novel of real people and the events as they might well have been. Although "fictional" the story is true. Sam Houston did indeed have a Cherokee wife and their love story, although a scandal in its day, was indeed a true romance. Get a snack, curl up on the couch, and enjoy.

My All Time Favorite

Tiana is the most incredible characters I've ever read about. Reading this books made me feel like I was stepping back in time to the days when the Cherokee were free and powerful. Luicia St. Clair Robinson does a remarkable job in researching the people and their culture. In this book you learn about Sam Houston, the development of the Cherokee Syllubus, Tecumseh, and the strengh of a Cherokee Woman.

Walk In My Soul

This was an excellent book, I read years ago. One that changed my life. Who Tiana Rogers was and the way she is portrayed in the book, gave me a role model to follow, in a time when I really needed one. This is a book that touched my soul, and I highly recommend it to anyone who's attention it called. It's a beatiful story and one that you'll never forget.

A Book that tugs at your heart

This book gives you the insight of what it was like to live as a Cherokee in that part of the country. They were loving, beautiful people who lived their life according to what their ancestors had taught. It also gives us the ability to understand what they were forced to leave behind so the White settlements could prosper. And the unfairness that they endured. Tiana is an incrediable character who touches our heart and leaves us remembering her or what she represents, years after the book has been read.

NEVER FORGOTTEN!

I read WALK IN MY SOUL many years ago and have never forgotten the heart and soul put in to each page. At a very young age I read this book and will Never Forget how I couldn't put it down, how I laughed and how I woke my sister by my soft crying. My whole family read and talked about it for a very long time. Never Forgotten!
