Red Sky Over America: Ladies of Oberlin Book 1

By Tamera Lynn Kraft

Description:

William and America confront evil, but will it costs them everything?

In 1857, America, the daughter of a slave owner, is an abolitionist and a student at Oberlin College, a school known for its radical ideas. America goes home to Kentucky during school break to confront her father about freeing his slaves.

America's classmate, William, goes to Kentucky to preach abolition to churches that condone slavery. America and William find themselves in the center of the approaching storm sweeping the nation and may not make it home to Ohio or live through the struggle.

Book Takeaway:

We should obey God and trust God with the consequences.

Why the author wrote this book:

I felt compelled to write it ever since I learned about the spiritual heritage of Oberlin College.
