Rose Mather: A Tale

(4,917 Sterne; 12 Bewertungen)
Fiction merges with history in this novel taking place during the turbulent times of the civil war and the horrors it entailed. Holme's silly, coquettish yet kind-hearted Rose will pull you in from the start. The sweet and pious Annie, the noble Tom Carleton, the motherly widow Mrs. Simms, the young and courageous Isaac, the mischievous rebel working for the south, and the brash, uneducated Bill Baker are just a few of the unforgettable characters who grow with every chapter. This is a tale of hardships and bravery, of fears and hopes, of inconsolable grief and love which will enthrall you to the end. - Summary by Celine Major (11 hr 27 min)

The reader has a robotic sound to her voice. I did really like the story!

NO problem of flagging interest! Sometimes you feel like cheering, and sometimes you find tears will come. Even then, the civil war probably much, much worse than the sad parts in this story. I highly recommend this as a great, well written story which portrays well lived, useful lives.
Great reading
