Woman of Courage



Take a three-thousand mile journey with Amanda Pearson as she leaves the disgrace of a broken engagement and enters the work of a Quaker mission in the western wilds. The trip is fraught with danger, and Amanda is near death before reaching her destination. Among those she meets are an Indian woman who becomes her first convert and a half-Indian trapper who seems to be her biggest critic. But love follows her into the wilderness and will determine the course of her future. You are sure to enjoy this historical romance adventure from New York Times bestselling author Wanda E. Brunstetter.
Amanda Pearson leaves the disgrace of a broken engagement and enters the work of a Quaker mission in the western wilds. The three-thousand-mile trip is fraught with danger, and Amanda is near death before reaching her destination. Will those she meets help her reach the Nez Perce mission station?
I found the story interesting and liked that the faith elements were very strong. Woman of Courage is well written and the characters are wonderful. Wanda Brunstetter writes with authority about Quaker Faith, Missionaries, Indian Tribes and customs, and The US during this time. I learned so much in this book about Quaker Faith and the lives of the Indians during this time in US History.

Thank you to Handlebar for providing a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
