The Four Winds

Wow!! Many tears were shed with this book.

Elsa who was disowned by her family after getting pregnant by teenage Rafe, makes a life for herself on the farm during the dustbowl era in Texas.

Then she ends up in California with her children picking cotton, and rising up against the crooked land owners.

But it's so much more than that. It's the the love she has for her children, it's the strength she has to do this all on her own. It's the length women go to to protect and provide.

It's a beautiful book. One that will stay with for a long time.
