Dreams of Savannah

De: Roseanna M. White

Narrado por: Sarah Zimmerman

Cordelia Owens can weave a hopeful dream around anything and is well used to winning the hearts of everyone in Savannah with her whimsy. Even when she receives word that her sweetheart has been lost during a raid on a Yankee vessel, she clings to hope and comes up with many a romantic tale of his eventual homecoming to reassure his mother and sister.

But Phineas Dunn finds nothing redemptive in the first horrors of war. Struggling for months to make it home alive, he returns to Savannah injured and cynical, and all too sure that he is not the hero Cordelia seems determined to make him. Matters of black and white don't seem so simple anymore to Phin, and despite her best efforts, Delia's smiles can't erase all the complications in his life. And when Fort Pulaski falls and the future wavers, they both must decide where the dreams of a new America will take them, and if they will go together.

Another great story

I really liked the good and the bad presented in the story! It was detailed and provided all you want in a Christian novel.

Great Book

Very balanced book. She does not focus only on the horrors of slavery she explains why it was an abomination. Worth the credit.

Excellent

This author is such a wonderful storyteller to bring history to life woven with scripture… and excellent narration as well

Worth your time!

I won’t give the synopsis of this book but Roseanna White has done it again! Rich characters and a pivotal time in history provides the basis for a wonderfully written book! I loved the growth in Phin and Delia, loved Luther and his search for Eva, and loved River and Selena! Sarah Zimmerman did an excellent job as the narrator! I’ll be looking for other books by her! Definitely worth your time!

Loved this book!!

You won’t regret listening!! The narrator did an excellent job. The story was so captivating. Can’t wait to read more from this author!

Please tell me there is more!!

Ever since I was a little girl I have loved stories about the south and the civil war. Once again Roseanna does a magnificent job of blending the turmoil and trauma of war with the love between family and God. Also one of the main characters is my name…so extra bonus point for that! -Selena

Captured me right from the beginning!

This story and the reader had me at the edge of my seat at times desperate to hear what happens next - tempted to fast forward my audiobook just to learn the fate of the characters. Speaking of characters, they are skillfully developed throughout and the tale of war, survival, and romance is masterfully woven. I am going to listen to another Roseanna M White book immediately.

So glad I didn’t give up

I am so glad I did not give up on this book. I am a very big fan of this author, I’ve loved all of her books. It took me a little bit to get into this book, I actually almost gave up on it. I struggled with the main character, and what I thought was going to be condoning of the confederate belief.
I am glad I read other reviews and trusted the author. I really enjoyed this book and the growth the characters went through.

How long ,Lord

Great story of love and true Christianity. If took longer than I imagined but finally the wedding was going to take place.

Best yet

I think this is White’s best book yet. The characters are irresistible. Historical situations make it interesting without worry about cringing through details of Civil War battles.
