Hope Takes Flight (Originally A Time to Die) (American Century Series #2)
Will the war in Europe take one of their own? As the Stuart family gathers once more in the shelter of the Arkansas hills, storm clouds gather on a continent an ocean away. Their sweet reunion cut short by the news of the sinking of the Lusitania and the start of the Great War, the Stuarts rush off to their individual destinies in war-torn Europe. Hope Takes Flight is a gripping story that sweeps you along from middle America to bustling New York, from war-torn France to the beauty of a German estate, and from the glitzy London stage to a tattered Berlin. A romantic and action-filled saga peppered with famous figures like Woodrow Wilson, William Randolph Hearst, and the Red Baron himself, Hope Takes Flight brings to life the tumultuous story of World War I--the beginning of a new era in our world and in the life of the Stuart family. Formerly a college English professor, Gilbert Morris spends all his waking hours writing fiction. The best-selling author of the House of Winslow series, he lives with his wife in Orange Beach, Alabama.
