Rating: - Exciting Ending
James and Carolina have a few marital issues over her inability to forgive his father for nearly ruining her own father. Then, the tumultuous little family moves to a sleepy little mining town where the Irish workers riot....a lot.

Rating: - Very good story!
This story takes place after James and Carolina's marriage at the end of "A Hope Beyond." As their family continues to grow, James and Carolina leave their beautiful Baltimore home and move to a small house further west so that James can be close to the expanding B&O Railroad, but still be able to come home at night most of the time. Adopted daughter Victoria falls in love with Kiernan O'Connor, a young Irishman who works closely with James, but at the same time, Kiernan's older brother ... Read More
Rating: - An intriguing story line!

You'll go with her as she comes to cope with the problems that encompass her, while she and her husband James try to maintain a home. Her mind is intrigued in the railroad building around her, and she finds all the information she ... Read More
Rating: - Another Score for Judith and Tracie!
The whole Ribbons of Steel series is fantastic and although I haven't read Ribbons West yet, I am looking forward to them immensely. This book intertwines the lives of Carolina and her husband, with her daughter's, Victoria. By the way, does anyone know if this is the last in the Ribbons of Steel series? I like to read books in ordaer and am trying to figure out if the Ribbons West series starts after this book. Email me if you know! Thanks!
Rating: - Good book, worth reading, but not the best of the three.
I truly liked this book if only for the continuance of the charactors. The story line has lots of variety and could be said to be many stories into one. It starts almost exaclty where the last book ended with the lives of Carolina, James, & Victoria learning to become a family. What I really enjoyed about this book and the series is the historical aspect that just so happens to center around my hometown as well as the fact that the author makes references to obvious historical persons.
