Pleasant Lines is the story of families who journeyed from the British Isles, Europe, and Scandinavia to begin a new life in the new world of North America. It is a story of courage and sacrifice. It is a story of the love, and the inspiring faith, that was a foundation for those families and for so many others like them. Pleasant Lines is divided into two sections. Book One recounts the remarkable stories that interface with the events of America's founding and earliest years, all the way through World War II and the early 1960s. Book Two resets the clock in order to focus on two young people who found one another, and at about the same time, found faith. In their way of loving, living, and even dying, they left an inspiring witness.
