A View Most Glorious By Regina Scott


This is the 3rd book in the American Wonders Series.  But not to worry, it is a stand-alone book with new characters than the previous books.  It was a nice ending to the series and I have really enjoyed the series which takes you to interesting and captivating places that many, including myself have not yet been able to enjoy personally. 

Cora has a definite goal and is a strong woman who wants to make an impact on the Women's Suffrage of this time period.  If a woman can climb a mountain, she can surely vote!  As she takes on the climb of Mt. Rainier, there are many challengers that would be difficult for even the most experienced climber, but she doesn't give up.  

The historical fiction book which takes place in 1893, has Christian values and is a sweet and enjoyable read.  There are challenges to overcome, both personal and physical.  It has an adventurous theme, which I really enjoy.  The characters are enjoyable and I especially liked Cora's stepfather as he continues to support her in her endeavors. 

I received a complimentary book from the publisher. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Nothing Short of Wondrous by Regina Scott

I was so excited to be able to read the next book in this amazing collection.  I previously read A Distance Too Grand and loved it.  And this book lived up to the first in the series and I totally enjoyed this one, too!  I am hoping that there will be more and each will be as wonderful as these have been.

Kate, a widow with the help of  her young son, run a hotel in the beautiful Yellowstone National Park.  A group of men from the Cavalry come to help patrol and protect the park from vandals and poachers.  And what a job it is.  Kate's knowledge of  Yellowstone helps the men to resolve the difficulties occurring at this difficult time.  

The research to this book is very evident as the author describes the terrain, the geysers and all the beautiful landscapes and wildlife that are in this wondrous park.

I love the descriptive writing, and the story with a forgiveness theme, both of others and of oneself. I loved the blossoming romance between the couple. And the reminders to listen to God and trust Him in all things of your life.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Revell Publishing. All thoughts are my own.
