I have enjoyed the Winslow series from the beginning, and to my amazement just realized there are many more of them to read! There is an excellent mix of drama, romance, and Biblical truth to keep the story interesting. We even had The Titanic sinking in this one!

8 - Was interesting to read about the events around the sinking of the Titanic. Poor planning from the very beginning before it even set sail. They had so many ice warnings and yet they didn't listen and just kept on the course they were on - to make it to New York in record time. Cost a lot of people their lives.

Reading the part about Africa wasn't that interesting - couldn't pronounce all the names of the language and people and it seemed to be slow reading through that part.

Ending was good - Annie ended up with Jeb and Jeannine ended up with John,

If the missionaries were all men in this book, I would have liked it much better. The women even preached in here, like regular services, which is strictly prohibited in the Bible. Besides that, the romance was immature/too descriptive and the theology limited/poor. What saved it from being a one-star book for me (which maybe it should be, anyway) was that the settings were interesting and it did give me something to think about in the way of witnessing.

This series by Gilbert Morris is one of my absolute favorites. Each book follows at least one member of a generation in the Winslow family tree and the member(s) gets saved and finds true love. There's also some commentary on the social conditions of the time frame. Truly interesting.

This book includes the story of the Titanic and the hunters in Africa.

[Michele Minor · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a good book where life lessons are learned in Africa and the reality of missionary life is portrayed in this book.

This didn’t take long to read. Despite the title, the first half of the book is about the Titanic! Couldn’t put it down!
