Summary: A resounding tale of legacies handed through the generations
Comment: Beginning in the 1700's, and spanning eras up through the World Wars, Vanished Glory: A Family In America by Connie Lynne Smith is a impressively written historical novel that traces the roots, struggles, victories, and heartbreak of a family with roots in American soil since its colonial days when the Irish patriarch escaped English tyranny for life in the New World. A resounding tale of legacies handed through the generations and challenges defining each new decade, Vanished Glory is a wonderful and highly commended reading experience which documents Connie Lynne Smith as storyteller of talented originality.

Summary: Vanished Glory is an overwhelming experience
Comment: From Reviewer Jane McCaffrey

Vanished Glory was an overwhelming experience for me. For a few days, I was left speechless. But I wanted to put my thoughts together, so I could tell others how important this book is and what it meant to me.

Vanished Glory was a jolting reminder of the sacrifices that were made and the blood that was spilled and what it took to build this country. Our freedom was hard fought and came at an awful price. I'm glad I was reminded of this sacrifice.

Vanished Glory is also the story of a family and how they responded when called. The Dougans were real people with flaws and failings like the rest of us. I could relate to this family. It was also the heartbreaking story of a young girl and her mother and the blows life dealt them and how they overcame them, together. When I finished Vanished Glory, I counted the many blessings that I have received in my life and thanked God for them.

Vanished Glory was also one of the most descriptive novels I have ever read. I could see everything, smell everything, experience everything. I felt like I had taken a trip back in time and indeed I had.

Thank you, Connie Lynne Smith, for introducing me to this family and the times they lived in. They will not soon be forgotten by me or anyone else who is lucky enough to read this thrilling, spellbinding story.

Summary: VANISHED GLORY is a joy from first page to last!
Comment: FROM REVIEWER JOANNE ELLER: KANSAS CITY, MO.,USA

Normally, I do not get enthused enough about a book to actually look forward to writing about it. But for VANISHED GLORY, this is a joy. I thoroughly and completely enjoyed this book from cover to cover.

From first page to last, it captures your heart and you fall in love with this family. The characters are unforgettable and you are soon invested in every joy and suffering that happens to them.

When the family arrived here in my home town of Kansas City, it was so riveting, I literally could not put it down, and you won't be able to either.
