Summary: An Excellent Book
Review: I'm a newcomer to the "American Family Portrait" series and this was the first book I picked up. I'm a bit biased due to the fact that I love World War II fiction or anything that deals with it, so this book was a quick favorite of mine. It was an excellent read that wasn't short at all. The characters were vivid and memorible, and the storylines in the book were great, especially how they intertwined together. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in GREAT Christian fiction, WW2 fiction, or just looking for a good read.

Summary: Set during WWII, it captivates and educates the reader!
Review: Jack Cavanaugh's "An American Family Portrait" series includes some of my all-time favorite historical fiction novels. "The Victors" continues the saga of the Morgan family as it decribes their experiences during World War II. The family is rooted in San Diego, CA, but the events in the novel take the reader through the war beginning with Pearl Harbor and ending in Europe. Not only do you feel the emotions experienced by this war-torn family, but you also learn about the era. So many historical elements are woven into the story that you learn and remember them because they are more than facts...they are people that you can relate to. Mr. Cavanuagh's use of similies and descriptiveness add a vibrancey that so many fiction novels lack. The characters are believable and draw out emotions that can only be experienced when the reader is completely engrossed in the work. It is truly an inspiring, informative, and entertaining novel that is extremely! well written and not soon forgotten.

Summary: Very good story
Review: While I don't like it as much as the previous books in the series, it's still great storytelling. I especially liked Nathan Morgan (the photographer) and Allie (I think I remember the character's name right). The book was as riveting as the others, but I didn't quite like the whole story as much, probably because of the more modern time period. Still, it's a good read with the same emotion, drama, adventure, and romance as the others!
