My Heart Belongs in Gettyburg, Pennsylvania by Murray Pura

My Heart Belongs in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania: Clarissa's Conflict by [Pura, Murray]














Here is the book summary:

When War Reaches Clarissa’s Back Door, the Trustworthy Become Even Fewer.
Journey into Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, of 1863 where Clarissa Avery Ross lives a full life. By day she is the daughter of a respectable shoemaker being courted by seminary student Kyle Forrester. But by night she is a conductor on the Underground Railroad, working with a mysterious man called Liberty. She would like to share her work with Kyle, but he refuses to enlist when the war breaks out. How can she remain true to a man being labeled a coward? When the war comes to her back door in an epic battle, the greatest challenges to her faith and love are yet to come.



And now, my review:
My Heart Belongs in Gettysburg Pennsylvania by Murray Pura was an excellent historical read that put me in the place of the Underground Railroad with Harriet Tubman and all.  Liberty was an amazing character, as was the main character, Clarissa.  I enjoyed the seminary man, Kyle as well.  It was an interesting twist of story lines to see where the author was going to take me.  I just wanted to keep reading.  It’s mysterious; there are feelings of betrayal and intense word pictures of the dangers conductors faced and choices they made while working toward freeing the slaves and the importance of it.  A great read!

I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
