This book sounds interesting. I like that it's both adventurous and educational. It's a nice way to learn about Colorado. You really get to know all about it by reading this book. Thanks for your review.

This review is in every way representative of that beautifully woven story. As fictional as it is, there is so much life that the story comes to life.

What interest me most is that tourism aspect of Colorado. I have to organize myself and tour this area with my family. Thanks for such an awesome review.

It's an interesting story especially as it expresses alot of humanitarian events such as "helping the pregnant woman using the jeep during a heavy blizzard". I commend the author's use of good spoken expression with fluency and the ability to workout alot of vocabulary. A nice review.

Latest Review: Neither Safe Nor Effective (2nd Edition) by Dr. Colleen Huber

Post by Moddesser Elahi »

I sampled the book on Amazon. It is a fictional narration of Danny Gray set in the Colorado Rockies of the 1950's. As mentioned in the review by Rs1977 , this is a mesmerizing story which will also reflect on the life of a young adult and could be quite informative. Cheers :) :)
The disappearance of the word "I am" is indeed the highest happiness! :)

Adventure stories are a disaster if the reader doesn't feel himself a part of them. But this book is written brilliantly, in a way that excites the reader. Thanks for your review.

A very interesting fictional story that takes the reader on an adventure in the eyes of the lives of a family living in the mountains many years ago. The book narrates and depicts the various settings and the lives of each in the family and their experiences in their world and with others. Some of the instances include Danny, the youngest saving fish, John, the eldest who was well read, Mary, who in one instance was a photographer, Russel, their dad who could could fly a plane and flew his family many a times adding to many of the adventurous adventures they all had and many other characters were there as well.

Although it was a great read there are many parts that I think that weren't necessary. The captivating title is what made me read on and I learnt a lot from what I read especially from the excerpts of poems and other sources that were an integral part of the writing style.

I do not read these kind of stories, this one seems like it should be for the YA reader. That said, for the reader of this genre, it sounds like a fun story, full of adventures for Danny and his siblings. Thank you for your review!

The book Morning Is Always Nigh by John Wickersham appears to be nice collection of adventures as well as an educational source on several aspects like fly-fishing tips, basics of flying an airplane, and photography techniques. This is a fictional story about the life of an young adult called Danny Gray in the Colorado region. The book appears quite interesting to read.
life is only knowing the unknown, we can do this by reading books easily- Online book club is a great place for this. This is what I believe.

I thought the review was really warming and heart felt from a time in our recent past when so many things seemed so new yet so very different to todays world. Its great to still read books that capture a time and a place as if by magic and lead us all back into a time and childhood that was or not where great things can be learned, earned and heard. Adventures are everything like a roller coaster hold on and enjoy, for better or for worse.

The book makes us feel as though we live in the midst of Danny’s family and encounter their adventures along with them.
Got my copy months ago because I love adventure books. Unfortunately, I haven't read the book yet. Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for the detailed review!
