ReviewsA beautiful story that brought me to tears more than once, and was a testament to the endurance of the human spirit and the human heart., This tender story about complex women is an easy one to fall into. It makes the perfect read for those who savor the finer details of historical fiction and love to cheer for strong female protagonists., Two women, separated by a century and a half, survive life in the United States military in Estes' suspenseful, neatly structured second novel...Brings the Civil War era to life and effectively links it to contemporary times., A compelling examination of war and its contradictions and a moving story of two women fighting for their own places in the world., Through moving details in twin centuries, both the power of war to destroy and the healing nature of love and art, even across time, are beautifully conveyed., Larkin and Emily's stories are equally fascinating and eye-opening. Based on the real-life stories of women who served, this is an excellent read and highly recommended for every public library.
