A Thousand Shall Fall

I started reading the book two nights ago and true to Bodie Thoene's style, I was drawn in right away. The buying and receiving transaction was good; no problems. I recommend the book and the seller.

I thought this book was a great read. I love all of the Thoene's books and this one didn't let me down. The plot was great and I read it in a very short time. I'm looking forward to reading the next one.

Great historical fiction with an even more important underlying theme. Just finished books 1 & 2... I have learned a lot more about the American history ( e.g. the experience of WWI, and what our soldiers had to come home to... or, in book 2, the experience of what it was like to be around the incredible stock market run-ups). More importantly - I completely got wrapped up in the characters and how they responded to the highs and lows that ultimately come with life - and how their faith actually grows stronger as a result.

Bodie Thoene is a master story-teller. She weaves multiple plots, characters, and events, both small and large, into a seamless story that you simply don't want to put down. I am always disappointed when the book ends because I've become so wrapped up in the historically accurate world of the characters, and I am glad for the other books in the series I have yet to read!The world she depicts in The Shiloh Legacy series reflects the broad range of simple joys and heartbreaks of the average person or family. By the end of the novel, without realizing it, I've stopped to re-evaluate my own life and priorities and I see them in the bigger picture perspective. Excellent!

This book/series, as are all the Thoene books, is a wonderful story about post WWI. The families and their daily living is written as if you were there. You become so involved in this book, that I wanted to read it in a day! The focus of the daily life in middle America post WWI is God centered. Wonderful Story!
