I read all 4 books in the series; they were mildly interesting.  but, what I wanted was a realistic story, and in this, the series fails miserably.  one would not very easily know these stories take place in the 1850s-60s.  the characters are liberal enough for modern times.  very little is said about the hard work women did at that time.  some women are referred to as "Ms." -- perhaps "Miz" would have been better.
