Overview
Marjorie Holmes's skillful writing takes these two wonderful characters off the calendars and Christmas cards and makes them genuine human beings with whom people can identify. Mary is portrayed as a lovely young woman just emerged from girlhood, and Joseph as a smitten, hardworking carpenter - both of them deeply in love, joyously betrothed, and preparing for their wedding and new home. Holmes treats the nativity reverently, without deviating from the biblical account, but makes it live for readers as the intense love story it must have been.Book Details
