Cannot wait for more books by Ms. Spurgeon.\"\u003c\/b\u003e Amazon reviewer \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSibyl, a wealthy Oklahoma banker's daughter, marries a handsome but poor hobo. The Depression rips through Sibyl's hometown of Shawnee leaving dying stores, repossessed farms, and countless men and women out of work. Now living in poverty, she suffers the burdens of a changing world and troubled economy.\u003cbr\u003eBased on a true story, Sibyl Pope wants to make the world a better place. Since her youth, she has followed her papa, a respected, clever-minded banker. Interested in socialist politics and asking the hard questions of life, she struggles to find her own purpose. She does her best to listen to God, even when her father refuses to help. Life changes. A new baby, a job with the PWA, and a promise of a brighter future. Concerned for her children, she struggles to keep food on her table and love alive in her heart -for her family, her husband, and God.\u003cbr\u003eMany people head west to save their families. Will Sibyl and Fremont abandon Oklahoma and their hopes and dreams for the promises in California? Or will they find a way to survive in Shawnee?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eThis faith filled, inspirational story is beautifully told. \u003c\/b\u003eEmily Yager, Writing History and Other Shenanigans Blog\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Margaret Pope Akin,Kathryn Spurgeon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0997334754\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780997334753\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Memory House Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/03\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 294\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.96lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.66d","brand":"Margaret Pope Akin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48441611387135,"sku":"9780997334753","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fc8e45d0-40a8-42ee-a260-4d792f0dc1d6.jpg?v=1777191993","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-promise-child-margaret-pope-akin-9780997334753","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
