As the formation of Glacier National Park takes Eleanor Briggs and her conservationist father on a journey west to advocate for public lands, her heart carries the weight of a painful past. Since the death of her mother, she has spent her life traveling the country with her father and helping him with his work, but now he's considering settling down and writing a book, and she's not sure what that means for her future.
Carter Brunswick faces trials of his own when the Great Northern Railway's departure threatens his family's livelihood and the entire town of Kalispell. In the visiting conservationist's daughter, Ellie, he finds a spirited woman who challenges his convictions in ways he never anticipated, and his own dreams for the future begin to change.
When tensions over the railroad's departure boil over, Ellie and Carter are drawn together on a daring journey that tests the depths of their feelings and their faith in God.
Return to Kalispell, Montana, with bestselling authors Tracie Peterson and Kimberley Woodhouse for a powerful tale of perseverance, truth, and the transformative power of love.
I was given a copy of With Each Tomorrow in advance to give an honest review.
With Each Tomorrow is the second book in the The Jewels of Kalispell series written by Tracie Peterson and Kimberley Woodhouse .
With Each Tomorrow is set in Kalispell Montana in 1904, with two main characters Eleanor Briggs and Carter Brunswick.
This book shows the trials and changes that comes to communities when the Great Northern Railway decides to depart and when conservationists want lands to be set aside for National Parks.
I did not realize the hardship that was put on the communities when these two types of changes would come. A Railway departing a community could be so catastrophic that the town could end up being abandoned. I did not consider that people actually thought that lands that have belonged to families for generations should be broken up and set aside for public use.
I really enjoy reading when a community comes together determined to not lose their community. It is encouraging to read how ones eyes can be opened to see things are not exactly how we thought they were, and hearts and minds can be changed when we open ourselves to God.
It is fun to imagine Kalispell in the late 1890's to the early 1900's. I do not believe I will look at Kalispell the same again.
I highly recommend this uplifting, encouraging, and heart warming book. I also recommend reading the first book in the series The Heart's Choice before you start reading the second book.
Enjoy!
