The Promise of Dawn By Lauraine Snelling from Bethany House a division of Baker Publishing Group. Opportunities are scarce in Norway, so when Rune and Signe Carlson received a letter from Rune's uncle, Einar Strand offering to loan them money for passage to America, Rune accepts. Signe is reluctant to leave her home, especially as she is pregnant with her fourth child, but Einar promises to give them the land of their own, something they could never afford in Norway. But life in Minnesota is more difficult than Signe imagined. Uncle Einar And Aunt Gerd are hard, demanding people, and Signe and her family soon find himself worked nearly to the bone to pay off their debt. Afraid they will never have the life they dreamed of, she begins to lose her trusting God. When the danger of the northward strike close to home, will she find the strength she needs to lead her family into the promise of a new dawn?
My Opinion: this is a very interesting book and it is from Under Northern Skies Series. I really like how the author puts God in the story as sometimes you might lose faith when you going through hard times but he’s really there with you. It is sad how family treats you in the nation treat you this way and I really could relate to the characters and how she explained the Norwegian heritage.
