by Elizabeth DuBois (Author)

The Louisa series follows the journal of affluent, educated 19-year-old Louisa Wilton from when she leaves South Carolina through her years in pioneer Alabama. Covering pre-statehood 1818 until Reconstruction 1877, the series is based upon the life of the author's ancestress.

Drawing upon writings of Louisa's husband and numerous other documents (some unpublished), Elizabeth DuBois incorporates timeless issues of slavery, the treatment of indigenous people and a spirituality gently critical of organized religion. Ultimately, Louisa's sometimes unconventional but heart-warming romance sees her through periods of doubt and depression.

In this third book of the series, Louisa continues her journal entries describing domestic life and spiritual enlightenment. She follows her secret passion of writing fiction, leaving us to wonder: will she ever relent and allow others into her interior life?
Laugh, cry, ruminate. This volume will tug at your emotions while raising questions worth considering.
