Critic reviews

"[Moody] has a splendid talent for bringing the ashes of the past into life." ( Chicago Sunday Tribune)"An affectionate portrait of ranch-town folk who knew how to help without humiliating, and a warm but ungushing tribute to a remarkable woman who deplored her inability to give her children everything, yet gave them much." ( New York Times)

Superlative

What a wonderful on-going Life Story, superbly narrated. With the difficult situation they found themselves in and the heavy decisions Mrs Moody had to make, it surely makes us count our blessings... they certainly lived by their principles and had a nobility of soul...
