Love all the books, and keep them.

Love the series also watching for the 3rd time. Always enjoy, cause you always miss something in the first round.

Ha Ha. Least I do.

Read other books —but always come back to Diana’s being the BEST WRITTEN.

Thank you —-for bringing Claire and Jamie, and all the other characters into my life.

Many Hugs

Rene Glucklich

During his chemo and stem cell transplant I reread all the books. I didn’t have any desire to begin a new book. Just last month I realized that I knew what was going to happen; there was no uncertainty. That was what I needed.
He is doing great; building projects and riding his Harley.
Thank you for providing structure to that time.

If I only get one “thing” for Christmas this year, it shall be your new book. :)

You describe this battle in book 7 so well that I feel I want to help Roger with a prayer and offer help for the wounded. You transport your reader to the story so well that he/she feels they are right there in the line of action. You are truly gifted dear lady!

Thank you for your words, for the characters, and most of all for the pleasure it gives me to “witness the past” as never before. I am a BIG George Washington fan & have read many, many biographies of him and other patriots, and know a lot about that war for freedom! Your writing is by far the most concise and holds my attention far better than anything written by some stuffy writers of history. I live in NJ and have visited many, many Rev. War sights & historic homes of officers & generous patriots of that time . So, for me, this Book 8 is a fantastic “reenactment” of the early history of our great country that took place in my home State of New Jersey. THANK YOU!

P.S. Reading your works during covid SAVED my sanity, so THANK YOU for that too! Blessings for you and your family. A very serious fan that’s me!

The correct wording of sentence a cavalaryman gasped is: Boze i Maryjo, pomozcie mi. Thera are no polish letters, this wording is closest.
Best Regards
Ania
