Sarah Bishop Sarah was actually a real woman in the late 1700's and early 1800's, and the book expounds on her life in the woods and gives creative thought as to what she did, whom she met, and what her life was like. Her way back to reading the Bible as a comfort and Hope was very inspiring and wonderful to read, as Isaac Morton shows her that she cannot live without God's love, and that she must read His Word for Freedom after not reading it for so long out of her anger for God. After finding acceptance from Isaac and seeing how she must not always fear humankind, she goes back to her cave- home with a new and freeing outlook on life!
