Belongs on your must-read list. This novel is a gem. --Omaha World-Herald

Nancy E. Turner's unforgettable These Is My Words melds the sweeping adventures and dramatic landscapes of Lonesome Dove with the heartfelt emotional saga of Oldest Living Confederate Widow Tells All.

A moving, exciting, and heartfelt American family saga inspired by the author's own family memoirs, these words belong to Sarah Prine, a woman of spirit and fire who forges a full and remarkable existence in a harsh, unfamiliar frontier. Scrupulously recording her steps down the path Providence has set her uponโ€”from child to determined young adult to loving motherโ€”she shares the turbulent events, both joyous and tragic, that moulded her, and recalls the enduring love story with cavalry officer Captain Jack Elliot that gave her strength and purpose.

Rich in authentic everyday details of frontier life and alive with truly unforgettable characters, These Is My Words brilliantly brings a vanished world to breathtaking life again.
