It all started about 20 years ago...I've always loved to read, and I joined the Christian Herald book club. Turns out that the featured book I ordered one month would change my life forever. After one of those "two-in-one" books (It was "The Man of the Desert" and "A Daily Rate"), I was hooked. Every time another Grace Livingston Hill book came out, it wasn't long before it was headed for my mailbox!
One day I noticed the copyright dates were from decades ago, and I got to thinking that there must be other books out there in the antique bookstores. Thus began the quest that has brought me here.
My first "real" Grace Livingston Hill book was a Grosset & Dunlap edition of Crimson Roses that I found in an antique mall. It's still my favorite, even with its worn out spine that's been taped together after the stress of being passed from friend to friend to friend. Trips to those booksellers were frequent, and many of my books were found before we had the Internet to help in the search!
It's the Internet, though, that's given me a greater joy, that of meeting kindred spirits who also have a love for Grace's writing and true appreciation for the influence God has given her on the lives of hundreds of thousands of readers through the years. She speaks to us all still, even though she's been at home with Jesus for over sixty years.
Sharing my passion for GLH books with a young friend led to what we like to call "the book". My dear friend and I worked together on her senior high school project, naively expecting a completed book to appear at its finish. Years later, it's still a work in progress. We've received many hundreds of emails, stories, and testimonies from GLH readers from all over the world, and it's been a joy to read them.
Please pray as we seek God's direction in where to go from here—it is our desire to share all the wonderful things we've learned about Grace and her amazing family in a way that will also draw many others to Jesus. It was always Grace's desire to share His message with others, and throughout this project we hope to do the same.
Thanks for stopping by the website, and do come back again!
