Freedom’s Promise by Pegg Thomas

Path to Freedom, Book 3

Zachary Brown has a good life on his dairy farm in Mount Pleasant, Ohio, but he longs for a wife and family. He finds a sick boy in his barn, a runaway slave escaping the life Zachary once lived, but new laws have increased the danger to anyone aiding them. Zachary doesn’t turn his back on the boy and then another one comes.

Daniel Whiteford heads to the Quaker community called Mount Pleasant in search of the grandson he’d given away to his indentured servant, Gwen, four years before. He didn’t anticipate that Gwen would have married and have another child nor that she and her husband considered the boy their son.

My attention was captured from the beginning. Likable, realistic characters pulled me into their emotional journey and tugged at my heart. Their faith in tough situations inspired me.

I was especially fascinated by how fugitives continued to find Zachary. I don’t want to give any spoilers here, so let’s say I’m inspired by his faith and determination in the midst of danger.  

I enjoyed this poignant story that held many surprising twists. This is the third book in the series and I hope there will be another! I recommend reading them in order.

This book was a page-turner for me.

Recommended for readers of inspirational historical romances.

I was given a copy of the book by the author. A positive review was not required. The opinions expressed are my own.

Brokenburn: The Journal of Kate Stone 1861-1868

/ sandramervillehart

Reviewed by Sandra Merville Hart

The journal was edited by John Q. Anderson.

Kate Stone was twenty in 1861, the year the Civil War started. She lived on a large cotton plantation, Brokenburn, in northeast Louisiana, about 30 miles northwest of Vicksburg, Mississippi.

Brokenburn was located in the floodplain of the Mississippi River in what is now Madison Parish. Enslaved people worked on their plantation.

In the beginning of her journal, Kate was involved in many social activities—formal dining, informal “spend the days,” evening parties, riding frolics, and neighbor visits. Early morning hunters with their packs of hounds baying, horns blowing, and horses stamping were familiar sounds.

Then the war grew closer. Her brothers and her uncle enlisted in support of the Confederacy. The war brought lots of heartache and tragedy. Kate looked back on her twenty-year-old self and realized that she had been pampered. That certainly changed.

Knowing this was a journal made the tragic deaths of loved ones difficult to read, yet I was grateful for Kate’s honesty.

I bought this book for research purposes. My Spies of the Civil War Series has three books set in Vicksburg during the war— Streams of Courage, Book 4, River of Peril, Book 5, and Tides of Healing. I read many other books for my research. This book provided many details of daily life in the 1860s. I enjoyed it very much.

Great book for history lovers interested in learning about the Civil War in Mississippi and Louisiana.

Mulligan’s Meatloaf

/ sandramervillehart

by Ane Mulligan

Ane Mulligan, welcome to Historical Nibbles! Ane is a talented author and dear friend. I love how her love of books and drama collide in Take My Hand, her new release. I can’t wait to read it! She is sharing a recipe for delicious Mulligan’s Meatloaf with us. Thanks for joining us today, Ane!

Nearly everyone has had meatloaf, but it has an interesting history, which has changed since the 1700s, when German immigrants brought meatloaf to the United States. It was first served as a breakfast food in New England. The first recorded recipe for modern American meatloaf dates back to the late 1870s. The recipe called for chopping up whatever meat was on hand, adding salt, pepper, onion, egg, and milk-soaked bread. 

I have a series of books (The Georgia Magnolias series) placed in the Great Depression. I researched foods and found meatloaf became a household staple in the 1930s, when families were struggling to stretch their food. People combined ground meat with seasonings and stale breadcrumbs to create a flavorful and filling meal. Meatloaf became more creative and personalized in the 1950s and 60s, with recipes including sherry-barbecued, mushroom-stuffed, and spicy peach loaves.

This is our favorite meatloaf recipe. We don’t measure when we cook; we simply use what feels right, then later adjust by taste.

Meatloaf:

1¼ -1½ lbs Ground beef, 65-70% lean. If you go higher, the meatloaf isn’t as juicy, and you can pour off the excess fat.

3 eggs

Italian bread crumbs

3 med onions, diced

1 red pepper, diced

1 yellow pepper, diced

Garlic powder

Dried parsley

Onion powder (yes, even if you add onions, it rounds out the flavors)

Salt & pepper

Red onion sauce:

1 med onion, diced

1C (or more) Ketchup

Garlic powder

butter

Instructions:

Sauté 2 onions and the peppers in butter. Mix in a large bowl; the ground beef, sauté mixture, bread crumbs, garlic powder, dried parsley, onion powder, and salt and pepper. Put in loaf pans or use parchment and form a loaf in that. We prefer this because the excess grease leaks out. Be sure if you use parchment to put it on a baking sheet. Bake at 375 for an hour.

When the meatloaf is done, set it aside and sauté the onion in butter with garlic powder. Add the ketchup and cook until hot and thick. Serve over slices of meatloaf.

The Spies of the Civil War Series

/ sandramervillehart

“History will never know how indebted it is to folks like you in ending the war.” ~ River of Peril

People spied on their government, their soldiers, and their neighbors during the Civil War. Union spies in the South lived dangerously. Everyday citizens, including enslaved and free black spies, became heroes to speed the war’s end.

Secret messages were sewn into hems, vests, and coats. Cyphered messages were hidden in bodices, hoop skirts, trees, hats, styled hair, books, custard dishes, hollowed-out eggs, and even in vaults with a dead body. Raised/lowered shades and clothes hanging on a line might also be clues for spies.

Some spies were already actors. Others disguised themselves to deliver secrets and to protect their identity. There were female spies who disguised themselves as men. If they could manage to remain anonymous, it saved them from their neighbors’ retaliation during and after the war. This was especially true in the South because the North emerged as victorious.

Many spies were caught during the Civil War and often imprisoned for days or weeks, up to a year. Confederate spies could sign an Oath of Allegiance to the United States to be released from Union prisons. Both sides executed spies.

For reasons already discussed, history doesn’t record most of Mississippi’s spies. Two Mississippi spies, Robbie Woodruff and Philip Henson, didn’t slip into obscurity.

Robbie Woodruff was a courageous farm girl who fetched Confederate messages from town and hid them in a hollow stump for couriers. Philip Henson, one of the Union army’s greatest spies living in the South, was captured and imprisoned for several months.

Key characters are spies for the Union in River of Peril, Book 5 in my Spies of the Civil War Series. The spies in my Vicksburg portion of the series (Books 4 – 6) are fictional. The stories show the type of challenges faced by historical spies.

My research for this novel began with a trip to Vicksburg, Mississippi. I was greatly inspired by the battlefield, the museums, and the people in the historic city. That inspiration—and a whole lot of research!—led to the writing of Streams of Courage, Book 4, River of Peril, Book 5, and Tides of Healing, Book 6.   

Avenue of Betrayal, Book 1,is set in the Union capital of Washington City (Washington DC) in 1861, where a surprising number of Confederate sympathizers and spies lived. Boulevard of Confusion and Byway to Danger are set in Richmond, the Confederate capital in 1862. Actual historical spies touch the lives of our fictional family. The heroines in Books 1 – 3 are two sisters and their cousins. Another set of characters begin with Book 4, and three friends are the heroines in Books 4 -6.

Through both real and fictional characters, this series highlights activities spies were involved in and some of the motives behind their decisions.

I invite you to read the whole Spies of the Civil War Series!

More about River of Peril, Sandra’s newest release:

Amnesia stole his memory, and now he’s fighting for the wrong side.

Orphaned and alone at sixteen, Felicity has found solace in serving others as a volunteer nurse. When she discovers her Confederate soldier beau, Luke Shea, among the wounded in her ward, her worst nightmares come true. Luke’s shrapnel wound has stolen his memory, leaving him with no recollection of their love or his past. As Felicity struggles with the loss of the man she once knew, she turns her attention to the service of her broken country. But the more she learns about the brutal war, the more she realizes she can no longer stay silent. She becomes a Union spy, plunging herself into danger.

When Luke Shea awakes in a hospital with no memory of the last five years, he’s shocked to learn he’s been fighting against the Union he once so strongly supported. And when he learns of his past courtship with his nurse, Felicity, he struggles to understand the man he was and what happened in those missing years. Determined to atone for his Confederate past, Luke also joins the Union cause as a spy.

As danger lurks at every turn, only a Divine hand can not only protect their lives, but give them a second chance for love and the future they both crave.

Vicksburg: A People at War by Peter F. Walker

Reviewed by Sandra Merville Hart

Vicksburg: A People at War 1860-1865

This nonfiction book reports on events that took place in Vicksburg, Mississippi, during the Civil War (1861-1865).

Walker arranged the book in mostly chronological order, which makes it an easy read. The accounts are well-written and easily grabbed my attention.

Filled with interesting details about important leaders and events, this book also includes quotes from newspapers articles that show thoughts and attitudes of the times. It is a treasure trove of information in that it takes readers back in time with its inclusion of descriptions of businesses and streets, and quotes from many of the folks who lived in Vicksburg. I highlighted many paragraphs as I read it.

In fact, I bought this book for research purposes. My Spies of the Civil War Series has three books set in Vicksburg during the war— Streams of Courage, Book 4, River of Peril, Book 5, and Tides of Healing. I read many other books for my research and this was one I enjoyed very much.

Great book for anyone interested in learning about the Civil War in Vicksburg, Civil War research, and history lovers.

The Legacy of Captain William Dodge: Civil War Hero and Lighthouse Keeper

/ sandramervillehart

By Susan G Mathis

Welcome back to friend and fellow author, Susan G. Mathis! She’s sharing a bit of background for her newest release, Julia’s Joy.

In the annals of maritime history, few figures shine as brightly as Captain William Dodge, the first keeper of the Sister Island Lighthouse in the Thousand Islands, NY. This man was not just a guardian of the St. Lawrence River and his ships but also a hero of the Civil War and a remarkable man.

Before stepping into the role of lighthouse keeper, Dodge was a captain—a hero forged in the crucible of the Civil War. He fought with the New York volunteers, but not without his share of scars. His left foot was badly wounded in battle, so he limped the rest of his life.

But he wasn’t just a hero and a keeper of the light. He was a craftsman too. Before the lighthouse, he was a man of many trades—a cabinetmaker, a tax collector, a census enumerator. A life woven with diverse endeavors, each one contributing to the rich testimony of his existence.

In 1870, following his appointment as the first keeper of Sister Island Lighthouse, he served faithfully and cheerfully. For twenty-three years, he tended to this tower, the keeper of both the light and its stories. As he worked, he prepared his son to take his place as the second lightkeeper. Known as a stalwart guardian of the river, guiding ships through stormy nights, he taught his son well.

Through the story of Captain William Dodge, we discover a man who not only illuminated the paths of ships but also shaped the lives of those around him. His legacy endures, a beacon of resilience and craftsmanship, woven into the very fabric of Sister Island and the hearts of those who remember him.

About Julia’s Joy:

She came to claim her inheritance, but the mysterious scarred lighthouse keeper makes her question all her plans.

When Julia Collins reluctantly sets foot on Sister Island, compelled by her wealthy grandmother’s will, she is intent on claiming her inheritance and moving on. But when she experiences the peaceful, faith-filled island life, and connects with the handsome lightkeeper, William, Julia finds herself confronting her open wounds from her parents’ deaths.

William Dodge, lightkeeper of Sister Island, harbors a heart hardened by a past betrayal. Between that and his chronic pleurisy, he wants nothing to do with love. But when Julia arrives on the island bursting with vitality and unconventional notions, William’s world is turned upside down. As she chips away at the walls William has built for himself, he finds his reluctance waning.

But just as love begins to blossom between them, Julia is faced with a tempting proposal from a prominent Brockville family. Will she succumb to societal expectations or choose the richness of her island life and the love of the steadfast lightkeeper?

Rocky Mountain Rendezvous by Misty M. Beller

/ sandramervillehart / 1 Comment

Sisters of the Rockies Series, Book One

It’s 1837 and women didn’t travel West alone because it wasn’t safe. Juniper and her three sisters are surprised when the wagon train guide that they’d traveled with to the Green River Valley (future Wyoming) releases them into a large encampment of men without food. Some of the men hadn’t seen a woman for a long time and the sisters are in danger. Their dying father’s request had sent them there to find Peigan Blackfoot woman but how were they to find her?

Riley Turner cringes to see the Collins sisters come West without an escort and worries for their safety. He steps in to join their search for Steps Right, not knowing the real danger was to his heart, for he falls in love with Juniper, who makes it clear they’d return to Virginia as soon as their mission was accomplished.

I love when an author weaves a story where I learn a bit of history as a natural part of the story! The characters were believable and lovable and I was soon enmeshed in their mission. The hero and heroine really tugged at my heart and the author did a great job with secondary characters we’ll see in later books.

Surprising turns, challenges, and dangers kept me turning page. This well-written story makes me want to read the next book in the series!

Definitely recommend! I will look for more books by this author.

Book Three

After reading the first two books in the series, I was excited to read the third one and it didn’t disappoint me!  

Melba and Cilla, two cousins actively working to open a new candle shop, have trouble right away from Ernie, the last shop owner who had been evicted. Ernie feels the cousins have stolen the shop they’re now renting, and complains he didn’t have enough notice to remove all his possessions.

To make matters worse, Melba and Cilla’s cousin, Charlotte, insists that the shop was her idea in the first place and she’s the business owner. Charlotte has been a thorn in their side for decades and her erratic demands cause no end of trouble for Melba and Cilla, yet Ernie’s threats are even worse.

The author does a great job building tension through twists and turns I didn’t anticipate. This cozy murder mystery snagged my attention right away. I love when a small-town cast of believable—mostly lovable—characters collide in a cozy mystery. The author does a great job at making the characters relatable, and I already had my favorites when I began reading this latest novel.   

There are a variety of characters in this book, and several have scenes written in their own point-of-view. While reading the third book, it was less challenging to remember family connections, though I still had to pay close attention at times.

Levigne has delivered another well-written cozy mystery that kept me turning pages.

I hope this isn’t the end the series!
