A Dream to Follow (Return to Red River #1)
In this follow-up series to Snelling's popular "Red River of the  North," a historical series about a Swedish community in North  Dakota, Thorliff Bjorklund dreams of being a journalist, but his  father refuses to consider sending him to college, expecting  Thorliff to help run the farm. But even Thorliff's love for Anji  is not enough to stave off his dreams. After praying for the  Lord's guidance and with his mother's support, Thorliff leaves  home to attend college. Thorliff is that curious mixture of  child and adult trying to grow inside the same skin. His  decision to pursue his own dream comes from the man he will  become, while his reactions to other events expose the boy that  he still is. Unfortunately, an otherwise enjoyable tale is  marred by the jarring and abrupt ending. For series collections  only.Copyright 2001 Reed Business Information, Inc.
