Great historical Christian fiction By Maggie Jarpey This book is like a time machine taking you back into pre-Civil War through post-Civil War days in the U.S. Fascinating reading because the author lived in those times. Her characters speak the kinds of things that were spoken then--the Southerners and the Northerners, and the people (mainly Christians) who were from the South but sympathised with the North because they knew how immoral slavery was. The slaves speak in this book, too--not in one voice, but as individuals. In addition to that, the plot has some satisfying twists, and the romance is likewise very satisfying. Lots of Christian stuff, lots of scripture quoting, so if you don't like that, stay away or prepare yourself to push through it. I liked it--I kept having my thoughts influenced to remember God's presence as I was reading, and that was a great bonus.Oh, and the description of West Point, of the capitol, and of Americans staying abroad during the conflict, was interesting, as well as descriptions of the clothing of men and women and soldiers--all written from the perspective of a person living at that time. Most notable to me was the ferocity of many Southerners toward Northerners, the contempt with which they viewed the Union army, the certainty with which they viewed their victory, based on their confidence in their own superiority of courage and skill in fighting. Also, the blindness that many Southerners of otherwise splendid character had toward the true nature of slavery--because they had grown up accepting it and everyone around them accepted it. That's a warning to us. Things in our society that are dreadful tend to lose their dreadfulness if we have grown up with them and are surrounded by people who accept them (for example, how can we accept the fact that young men who go to prison routinely get raped? We even make jokes about it).

Continuation of "Daisy" By deborah I didn't like this as much as the prequel, "Daisy", where Daisy finds herself engaged to a Northern soldier on the brink of America's Civil War. "Daisy" ends abruptly with the engagement, and "Daisy in the Field" takes up with Daisy's life as she rejoins her parents and brother in Europe while her fiancee goes to fight. Daisy's family, who own Southern plantations and enjoy the wealth from slave labor, are not Christian converts (as Daisy is), and support the Confederate States. Daisy must struggle to manage her feelings for her distant, endangered fiancee, her family's opposition to her "fanatic" beliefs, and her unwillingness to directly confront her controlling family with her opposition to slavery.The writing is very authentic, and it isn't preachy. But this story also moves very slowly. Many of Daisy's struggles are purely internal - how to honor her parents while disagreeing with them, how to avoid conflict that may prejudice them even more against the engagement she is unhappily keeping secret, how to answer virulent hatred against the Yankees, and how to conceal her engagement while remaining disentangled in the face of her mother's predatory matchmaking plans. On a side trip to the Holy Land with her father, which takes up much of the book, her father is converted. At the end of the book, she is working in a Civil War hospital, where she must face the worst that could happen to her fiancee.Like "Daisy", this book also ended suddenly, though there are no other books to follow for this character. God is less a part of this book than the other - the Civil War, which the author experienced in her lifetime, tends to cause immediate life-and-death concerns to overwhelm our consciousness of God, and this is both reflected and acknowledged in the story.
