Every time Sibyl visits her mother, she’s criticized, shamed, and leaves in tears. The only thing that can calm her is Fremont’s assurance to move them to a place they can share their faith more freely. While her emotions bounce from frustration to despair, she holds on to the belief that God can help her family.
Fremont, a former hobo, promises to find a better paying job and spirit his wife away from this unstable family. But only God can work that miracle.
If you love family sagas and drama based on true stories, you will love this book. The 1930s and 40s were a time of difficulty but hope carried them through.

My Review
Fremont's Promise is the third installment from Kathryn Spurgeon’s The Promise series. I enjoyed the first two books, A Promise to Break and A Promise Child, and this one is by far my favorite of the series. I adored Sibyl right from the start and felt an instant connection to her. I admired her faith and had to find out how it would end for her. I loved it!
Fremont's Promise will be getting a very well deserved five plus stars from me. I highly recommend it for readers who enjoy reading clean and inspiring historical fiction based on true events. I will be looking for more by Kathryn Spurgeon in the future. This series should not be missed.
I received a paperback copy of Fremont's Promise from the publisher, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
Great review, thank you.
