Across the Crying Sands

Kirkpatrick (Beneath the Bending Skies) writes of Western expansion with an eye for people whom history books often forget. There are no 21st-century anachronisms in this tale based on a real-life couple. Readers who like to see the day-to-day unfolding slowly in unexpected ways, as in the work of Sandra Dallas and Tracie Peterson, will enjoy.

Where Lilacs Bloom

Based on the true story of horticulturist Hulda Klager (1863–1960), this is a tale about women and the way they try to find meaning and purpose in their lives. It could have been dry and boring, but Kirkpatrick's lyrical prose and attention to historical detail result in a truly great read. Recommended for readers of Suzanne Fisher Woods.

Kirkpatrick (An Absence So Great) has done an outstanding job of illuminating turn-of-the-century America and the effect of the period's rapid changes on the emancipation of women. Highly recommended for fans of historical fiction that features strong female characters and attention to detail.
