Carried Forward By Hope, Book 6 of The Bregdan Chronicles series, by Ginny Dye begins with the ending of the Civil war in America and the soldiers returning home to find their families. It is the year 1865. After the war ended the beloved President Lincoln freed the slaves in the south and had great plans to move the country forward. Unfortunately the great president was assassinated and suddenly the people acquired a new president to take his place. It didn't take long before the people realized this president didn't have the same ideals as their past leader and the country would have a difficult time in trying to heal. Ginny Dye is a great historian and story teller. I love her characters in this book. I feel like a part of their family and want them to thrive and achieve their goals of reconstructing their lives and help the freedmen and people of the south that were defeated after the war. I have learned how people must have felt going through the hard times of despair and pain, mentally, as well as physically. This is a story of people, men and women, black and white, northerners and southerners. This was a time when freedmen wanted their rights and women wanted to vote and the haters of course making this virtually impossible. Love, passion, romance, hate, despair, cruelty and happiness will rip through you while reading this wonderfully written book. I suggest you get a copy of the first books in this series. I am looking forward to book #7 (Glimmers of Change)!

I absolutely loved the first 5 of these books and look forward to loosing myself in this one. If it is even half as good as the others, I won't get any sleep tonight. Thankfully, I got the grass cut and laundry done in preparation for the release of this book. I'll give this one five stars based on the others in this series since I know the author will not let us down.

Having read the other 5 books, this was a bit disappointing. There was not as much rich history as was in the other books. And, tears were 'springing' to everyone's eyes every few pages it seemed. Though I understand that it was an emotional time, perhaps some other way could have been used to convey tears or maybe it could not have been mentioned so very often.

Absolutely could not put any of the books down in this series. I have read many books over the years, and never felt the compassion and talent from any author. If you get a chance to read this series, you won't be sorry. Every one of the books were written so eloquently, you feel like you are in the same room with the characters. She describes each character with such depth and descriptive qualities with your minds eye you can actually see them. I only hope there will be another book and I will be waiting to see. Thank you for taking me to a place back in history I would not have been able to experience. Again, thank you for your ability to transform and entertain me with such beautiful artistry.... So talented.

I have just finished reading this, the 6th book in the Bregdan Chronicles and I have one word to describe the whole sage...MAGNIFICENT!! I am a big fan of books from the Civil War Era and this saga is without a doubt the BEST account I have ever read of that period of time. All of the characters are developed so colorfully and realistically that I have become very attached to them. As we all know, it was a time of great upheaval in our country, and these people live this upheaval every day of their lives. It was a dangerous time as well. The horror of the war is not downplayed one bit in these books...I would have been very disappointed if it was. Carrie Cromwell began life on a thriving plantation outside of Richmond, Va. before the war She loved life on the plantation and also loved many of the slaves her father owned. But Carrie began to doubt the moral issue of 'owning' another person and she struggled with that until God showed her truth. From that time on, she became a different person. Follow along with Carrie as her life takes twists and and turns she never could have imagined during those carefree days on the plantation. She becomes a nurse and helps out in a military hospital during the war...tending horrific wounds and struggling to help dying men. She wishes more than anything to be a doctor...but can she become a real doctor in a time when women just didn't go into that profession that was dominated by men? Ginny Dye is a genius! I can only imagine the hours and hours of research she put into these books. Her dedication shows through each one. I cannot WAIT for book #7!

The Bregdan Chronicles series is one of the best I have read in my lifetime, and that covers thousands and thousands of books. The research into details of the Civil War is excellent. The books make the reader feel as if they are living during the tumultuous times of that era. The story is told from the perspective of many different characters--from being the daughter of a plantation owner that owns slaves to a slave on the Underground Railroad to an escaped slave that is teaching in the camps to being in battle as either a Union or a Confederate soldier. They talk about atrocities of the war that are often glossed over. They highlight the division among families, and the deprivation that was shared by everyone. I can't say enough about this excellent set of books and highly recommend them!
