[The History Mom · Rating 5 out of 5]

Lovely story about the author's own ancestors. From their time in Scotland to the big cities of America to the valleys of Colorado, this work of historical fiction will make you grateful to be living in the present! How these women survived the constant work and disease is amazing. I love the author's personal connection to the characters as you can feel the love and emotion in her writing. I read this in preparation for a trip to Colorado and can't wait for the next in the series!

I enjoyed the story and the history. I learned about this story from the great great grandson; he shared with me the story and a personal tour of the Scott property in Castle Rock, CO. The history is the best and to walk into the original bard where his great great grandmother milked cows. To imagine the traveling and the open space to find land in the 1800 in this area of CO is quite the vison with the current growth we have.
