Daniel’s Garden Reviews:

“The author weaves in climax, tension, emotion and graceful realism to a crescendo; you can’t help but feel it. She knows the era and the history–but more importantly, she knows how to deliver a historically authentic tale without getting preachy. Poetic in places and deceptively quiet to start, this sweeping novel delivers one boy’s journey through Second Bull Run, Fredericksburg, and beyond. Battle scenes are depicted with a sharpness that sears the imagination.
With a lilting Irish love story threaded amongst the battles, this novel is a treasure to be read again and again. I’m eager to see what Meg North writes next. She’s one to watch.”

“All of us have ‘a garden’, a place of refuge even if it’s in our fantasy’s only. Did Daniel leave that place or take it with him? Did it serve him well or haunt him? To anyone that has ever longed to set their own course and march to the beat of their own drum, regardless of the consequences, this book is for you.”
~ Raymond Mullen, Amazon.com customer

“The story captures the mundane as well as the horrific, the bloodless as well as bloody, aspects of the War as seen and felt by Daniel and expressed in his authentic voice. We care what happens to him and his fellow innocents, and there the novel succeeds where it has to. It is a good and entertaining read.”
~ Steven Fletcher, Amazon.com customer
