4 delightful novellas by 4 excellent authors. Describes the plight of women teachers in the late 1800's. Each one will transport you to that time and give a peek into the lives of these women who felt called to teach. By the way, might there be a little romance in the air???? I received an advance reader copy. Opinions are my own.

Four novellas with four disparate plots, but one thing in common--each features a teacher. Beginning in 1864 and going through to the early 1899, these novellas describe the changing world of teaching, especially with the rules pertaining to women teachers. Common to all of these stories are rules about not courting or marrying during the year during the school year.

Each story is completely enjoyable and compelling. I loved them and couldn't put them down once I started them. From teaching a group of buffalo soldiers to read so that they can perform their duties better, to teaching effectively regardless of the methods used in teaching, this book compels the reader from the very beginning to the very end. It is a five star book with two thumbs up and some new innovations in teaching school.

My thanks to Barbour Books and NetGalley.com for providing the galley I read for this review. The opinions stated here are my own.
