The Treason of Mary Louvestre

My husband and I visit Get Booked just about every week, owned by our friend Raul Gutierrez.  Earlier this week, Raul asked me to review a new book by My Haley, The Treason of Mary Louvestre.

I very much enjoyed the story of Mary Louvestre.

Engaging, realistic, and descriptive, this story tells of the journey of one woman's struggle against the elements, society, and herself.

I have no trouble believing that the characters created by My Haley actually lived.  In fact, I wouldn't be surprised to meet any of them on the street today.  I am especially pleased to know that this tale is based on the real life of a Southern Seamstress who in no small way helped the North to win the Civil War.

Haley skillfully weaves the elements of Southern Society with Mary's experiences to create a tapestry as rich and beautiful as any Renaissance wall hanging.

If Haley decided to continue her research and enlighten us (her avid readers) concerning the rest of Mary's life and adventures, I would definitely be in line to purchase the book.

I highly recommend purchasing and devouring this book for yourself.  And then write to My Haley, encouraging her in her future ventures.

That's how I understand it,
Laura
