"I can think of few authors whose writing I enjoy more than those of Elizabeth Goudge. She has the rare ability to express herself unforgettably and is able to transport you into another world and time, in which you find yourself immensely enriched and entertained.
"Ruth Bell Graham"
"To many who read this novel it will be the best-written novel they have yet read. . . It lifts up the spirits and makes them light." "New York Herald Tribune""
