Lessons on Love

I absolutely love reading these authors, and especially when they are grouped together to bring readers a group of novellas that teach various people about love.  Beginning in an era when teachers were not allowed to be married, each story becomes more modern until the early 1900s. 

One of the teachers had her job taken from her by nepotism on the school board, but she found a way to continue teaching--by teaching the Norwegian children to read, write, and speak English. 

One of the teachers loses her job when the school closes down.  She was a music teacher and she was supporting her mother and her sister with her salary.  A man she met at the closing of the school sets her up to play a piano concert and many parents attending ask her to teach their children privately.

These are just two of the four high quality novellas contained in this anthology.  Barbour always puts out a quality product and this certainly fits that bill.  Five Stars, Two Thumbs Up, and teacher to fill in your blanks.

My thanks go to Barbour Publishing and NetGalley.com for providing this galley for me to read and review.
