Once More, From the Beginning by Wendy Bertsch

My timing in reading this was excellent, finishing the book just prior to this season's first episode of 'Hell on Wheels.'īook Review: Have you wondered how people might get involved with Spiritism and how it works? Spirit Catcher is an entertaining story that explains some of the workings of early Spiritism in this country. The mood is not always light-hearted and humorous, as several of the protagonists show their dark side and offer the reader an opportunity to play detective as well as analyst. While humorous and light-hearted, there is a serious picture painted of the era, as the author painlessly threads historical glimpses of the times throughout the book. A simple plot, with plenty of complexities, and a great deal of humor keep the reader entertained throughout. If you are a reader of historic American fiction, then by all means, add Tunnel 6 to your reading list.Īn interesting, fast paced read, that is hard to put down once started. Tunnel 6 is as full of compelling facts and historic color as his previous books. A female telegrapher, a journalist, a surveyor and a corporate/confederate spy maneuver around each other in a delicate dance.

The story focuses upon the railroad camps in the Sierras during the race to create a Transcontinental railway. His characters are well-revealed, and the pacing keeps the pages turning. I've become a real fan, over the years and this book was almost read in a single period. Tunnel 6 is another of Steve Bartholomew's extremely entertaining presentations of some of the more obscure chapters of California history. To order, just click on any of the book covers. Below are reviews for many of Steve’s books.
