SUGAR CAMP QUILT

Christina Moore delivers a first-rate performance of this poignant story, making the characters come to life in the minds of listeners. The story centers on the life of Dorothea Granger in Creeks Crossing, Pennsylvania. Her Uncle Jacob, a stubborn and sometimes harsh man, requests Dorothea to make a quilt by an exact pattern that he created. Though the purpose of this quilt is a mystery to the family, it eventually becomes apparent that there is a purpose beyond the practical. The story weaves danger, suspense, romance, and historical details of antebellum times and the Underground Railroad. The talents of author Jennifer Chiaverini and narrator Christina Moore create an unforgettable story. N.L. © AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine [Published: FEB/ MAR 07]
