These is My Words by Nancy Turner was published in 1998. It May's Book Club book. And I just finished reading it for the second time. It was as wonderful the second time around as the first. The story is a series of diary entries recorded over a twenty year period of a young pioneer woman's life. The story was inspired by the author's own grandmother's memoirs. Sarah Prine lives in a harsh environment in the Arizona territories battling Indians, rattlesnakes, death and the cruelties of nature. It brings early American experience to life and gives rich details about a way of life that has long vanished. These books are available at the library for checkout. Read and enjoy, then join us for our discussion on May 12.
