Synopsis: GRACE LIVINGSTON HILL has long been known as one of the nation’s foremost writers of inspirational romances. She is still widely read and appreciated by thousands of readers. What is not so well known is that her personal life was fraught with joys and sorrows not unlike those experienced by many of her fictional heroines! As the author writes, “Her own life is as inspirational as her romances.” Grace Livingston Hill’s grandson, Robert Munce, now brings to life the fascinating story of her sometimes joyful, often sorrowful life—from her eventful birth at the end of the Civil War to her death in 1947. Amusing, delightful family anecdotes mingle with intriguing accounts of how Grace’s story ideas were conceived and eventually developed into published books. The author’s close relationship to this remarkable woman lends warmth and insight to this biography of America’s most beloved author. Robert Livingston Munce, the son of Grace Livingston Hill’s youngest daughter Ruth, is the president of R.L. Munce Publishing. He lives in St. Petersburg, Florida, with his wife, Martha, and their three daughters.
