“Kathryn: Days of Struggle and Triumph” by Donna Fletcher Crow


Kathryn: Days of Struggle and TriumphBook One: Daughters of Courage Series

Kuna, Idaho. Seventeen-year-old Kathryn Jayne steps off the train with her father and stares at the endless brown dirt and sagebrush: Are there even enough people living here for Dad to pastor a church? And why can’t we live in a civilized place that has churches and schoolhouses for meetings? Kathryn is determined to survive in this desert land, but achieving success seems as likely as climbing to the moon.

Set at the turn of the twentieth century, Kathryn captures the page-turning drama of how one woman faces the challenge of change. Through adjustments to a new community, new friendships, and romance, Kathryn learns to lean on the guiding hand of God.

Daughters of Courage: Gripping Novels With Fascinating Truth

Close your eyes for a moment. Imagine a wilderness so hot and dry that the only thing that grows is endless acres of sagebrush. Imagine having to travel 15 miles just to get fresh drinking water! Imagine a life without any of the comforts we take for granted. It takes determination and courage to survive in a place like that. Kathryn Jayne not only survived, she thrived— her experiences bringing to life the promises of the Gospel. In the midst of that drought ridden desolation, she also found the love of many dear friends and a dashing, irreverent Scotsman struggling to outdistance a troubled past.

From untamed Idaho to Edwardian London, to enchanting Scotland, Kathryn recorded her experiences in the journals that became the basis for this thrilling saga, an inspiration for her family and us all.

Because these are real people and real events, the experiences of faith, challenged and faith triumphant are all the more meaningful. God’s abundant love comforts and sustains these Daughters of Courage as it will sustain us all if we open our hearts. It’s rare to find novels that combine a strong Christian ethic with compelling story-telling. I hope that Donna Fletcher Crow’s loving testament to her grandmother and mother and to the brave men and women who shaped our country will touch you as much as it did me.
