Summary: Amazing Story! Delightful and Historically Informative!!
Review: This author takes her reader by the hand and leads him down the winding road of her life in a deeply gripping, historically true story of her life, beginning as a child, during the WWII era in Africa. Her escapades in boarding school are worth a really good belly-laugh and her life in the African bushveldt with her Grandfather is filled with charm, wonder and nostalgia. But the incredible direction her life then takes as she grows up and struggles through unanticipated outcomes and unimaginable horror, from uprisings in Africa to post WWII Europe, had me unable to put the book down! What a life this woman had and how well she tells it!

Summary: WHAT HEART! WHAT A POIGNANT STORY!
Review: This woman has, like many of us, been through hell at the hands of a sadistic man. She, unlike
some of us, lived to tell about it, largely due to a compassionate doctor (all too rare today).

Every woman needs to read this book, if only to learn what an evil man can do to a successful
woman. This book should be required reading at every high school in the nation.

Get it for your daughter. Today. Before she meets Mr. Wonderful and is taken, inch by imperceptable inch, down the corridors into helplessness and slavery.

Summary: How do you solve a problem like Maria??
Review: You read her book! This is a wonderful story that begins with two little girls going off to boarding school in Africa and ends with the beginning of a beautiful love story. In between the reader shares Maria's experiences of falling so in love while traveling in Italy, being an abused wife, falling in love again with a wonderful man and so much in between. I truly enjoyed reading this book and plan to reread it before I go to Italy.
It's a helpful thing to read about how other people lived their lives. You will have much to think about after finishing this book.
