Synopsis

ACFW Book of the Year Award winner Kim Vogel Sawyer is acclaimed for her soul-stirring fiction. In this enthralling tale, schoolmarm Edythe Amsel arrives in 1882 Nebraska with lofty goals. Soon her teaching methods-and her views on women's rights-ruffle feathers. Only Joel Townsend speaks in support of the teacher who's won the affection of his nephews.
