Termed the Uncle Tom's Cabin of the southwestern Indians and the first protest novel of California, Ramona is the story of 3 cultures - Indian, Mexican, and Anglo - locked in combat. The upheaval and injustice are humanized through the romance of a beautiful half-Indian orphan who grow up as the ward of Señora Moreno in privileged surroundings, then falls in love with an Indian and joins him in a life of poverty and tragedy. The Ramona Pageant in Hemet, California, based on this romance, has played each year since 1923, reenacting the transition period between Mexican traditions and the new U.S. and state governments.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 41
First published in 1869, Little Women is the story of four sisters growing up against the background of the American Civil War. Alcott wrote the book at the urging of the publisher, Thomas Niles, who was seeking a story about girls that would have popular appeal. Although it was commenced essentially as a children's book, it developed into something of a bildungsroman, which touches on more serious issues such as the difficulties faced by single-parent families, the death of a sibling, and fractured relationships.

A lesson in judgment and forgiveness :-)
What did you love best about The Western Mail Order Bride: Garret and Meredith in Montana's Bitterroot Foothills?
Even though the Scripture wasn't quoted in this story, the reaction of Garrett to Meredith's revelation reminded me so much of Romans 7:15-25.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Western Mail Order Bride: Garret and Meredith in Montana's Bitterroot Foothills?
I especially liked Meredith's first reaction when she saw the Montana vistas - spectacular!
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
As noted above during Meredith's telling her 'secret' to Garrett, I found myself speaking aloud during the story, "No! Don't do that!" But alas, he reacted in his humanness.
Any additional comments?
This story is such a wonderful example of our human failings and God's mercy and grace to us, of which we are so undeserving. Glory to God for his wondrous love!
