Mrs. Mike

What is one to do when it is freezing cold outside in Minnesota?

Read a book of course!

And Barb and I have just the recommendation for you: Mrs. Mike by Benedict and Nancy Freedman

I found this review and it summarizes the book well:

Mrs. Mike is the love story of Katherine Mary, a young Irish girl from Boston, and Sergeant Mike of the Canadian Mounties, under whose supervision falls all of the great Canadian wilderness. Katherine Mary comes from a world of privilege and comfort. When she moves with her husband to the North Pole region, let's say it took a bit of adjustment. It's a romance, an adventure, a coming-of-age, a tragedy, and a history. Give it to your niece or daughter or granddaughter. Give it to your sister, your friend, your neighbor. I guarantee, they'll all love it.

This classic tale set in the Canadian wilderness, portrays a marriage of uniqueness like no other. Barb and I got it from our local library. I highly recommend you read it...from the perspective of woman, wife, homemaker and mother.

Please share with us if you read it and what you thought!
