Sarah's Quilt

A Novel of Sarah Agnes Prine and the Arizona Territories, 1906 (The Sarah Agnes Prine Novels, Book 2)

By: Nancy E. Turner

Narrated by: Valerie Leonard

In Sarah's Quilt, our indomitable heroine Sarah Agnes Prine, the courageous pioneer woman introduced in These Is My Words, shares her homespun wisdom and her heartache as she contends with life in the Arizona territories at the turn of the last century.

Sarah's Quilt opens in 1906 after years of drought have devastated the cattle ranches of Arizona. Sarah is faced with starving cattle, a dry well, and romantic advances from a scheming neighbor. In addition, she must try to save her brother's family, who are victims of the great San Francisco earthquake. Sarah's voice is indeed as comfortable an old quilt, and her many fans will eagerly celebrate her return.

Folksy

I liked this 2nd book of the series - the narrator was great and the story can apply to life tragedies

All the hard hitting pioneer drama!

Loved it! Page turner. Serious edge -of-seat moments. I love Aunt Sarah! Tears were shed.

Many lessons to think about

Loved every minute of this book. Wonderful continuation of This Is My Words. Highly recommend.

The narration was so much better than ‘Theseus My Words’

I really enjoyed this book and learned a bit about like out on the prairie in 1906.

And the story continues!

It took me a minute to get into this one for some reason. I really loved the 1st book in the series (These is my Words) so my expectations may have been a bit too high. LOL. Or it may have been the fact that it took me a minute to get use to the narrator as it's not the same one who narrated the first book. This one is a slower pace, giving you the experience of day-to-day life as a pioneer in the 1900’s and how consuming those tasks were. There are times you want to yell at Sarah for how stubborn she is or how annoying her thought process is. As the book went on you settled into the rhythm of the story and get lost in it. Things were not easy in those days and I’m sure it felt like everything was against you. Sarah’s family continue to have to overcome a lot of obstacles, as they did on their journey to where they finally settled. I’m sure many would have just given up, but not Sarah or her family. The book ends, making you feel like the story is unfinished, but then you realize there is another book in the series, so the story continues. I look forward to seeing how the tail ends.
