The Honorable Imposter (House of Winslow)

Rating:
Summary: misinformation
Review: Edward Winslow was the first Winslow to come over on the Mayflower.The Winslows had many children, but looking at our family Bible and records...no Gilbert. Also, the Winslows in our family line (directly from Edward)became Quakers and settled in the South (NC). However, the book sounds interesting, but the names could be more accurate.

Review: This book is a must read for any Christian that has an interest in historical fiction. My father bought me this book for my birthday along with the other four in the book 1-5 boxed set. I loved it right away. It had adventure, romance, nail-biting, tear-jerking plot twists, and completely accurate historical events tied into the story lines. I got hooked on this book and the Gilbert Morris House of Winslow Series. Before long I had read 22 and am going to buy the 23rd. I only wish there were more in the series. I recommend this book and other historic fiction Gilbert Morris books very strongly.

Summary: Must Read for History Buffs!
Review: This has to be one of my favorite books. The content of the book, historicaly, is amazing. Gilbert Morris must have gone to a lot of trouble to research his book so thoroughly. The trials that Gilbert Winslow experiences are facinating to any reader. The story line of Gilbert and Humility is truly romantic and gives you hope that true love does exist. Gilbert Winslow was a real man that traveled on the Mayflower as well as Humility Cooper and several other characters. However, I do believe that Gilbert went back to England after coming to the New World as well as Humility Cooper. I do not know if the story line between them is a true one, but I don't want to know; I fell in love with them and that is the way I'd like to keep it!

Summary: This is a great book...
Review: This is a remarkable story. It is full of history and I learned a lot about the ways of life of the puritans from reading it. You will meet the characters you find in your history books in a way you never knew them before! I read it very quickly because the characters were so well developed and the plot exciting. The romance was wonderful, but this isn't a romance novel so it wasn't overdone. This is the first book in the House of Winslow series and it tells the story of young gilbert winslow who takes on a job as a spy to turn in one of the leading puritan pastors. It follows his journey on the Mayflower and the lives of the settlers. This story is captivating, simply put. Will Gilbert be able to turn in the innocent man even after he has come to love the Puritans? Will he go back and Marry Cecily and forget all about dear Humility? Everyone should read this book.
