Description
The Shiloh Legacy series covers the lives of four young soldiers and their families through these great events: the end of World War I in France, the return of the soldiers to America, the Roaring Twenties, the stock-market crash, the resulting Great Depression, and the rebuilding of lives that must follow. Yet with all the racial, social, and cultural intolerance that marked the day-seemingly immovable mountains in the lives of these characters-God works through the tragedy, the laughter, show more the pain, the joy, the dramatic, and the ordinary to create a yearning in their hearts for a faith that moves mountains. show lessTags

Third in the 'Shiloh legacy' series. This draws together threads from the first two books, although it could probably be read as a stand-alone novel. The story revolves around a large number of situations, gradually interweaving characters' lives, with a low-key Christian theme moving throughout: of hope even when life seems to be falling apart, and trusting God despite crises. Satisfying ending; eye-opening from the point of view of US history.
