Orphan Train


"Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't worry.... God never blinks" Life Lessons According to Regina




 
I recently completed this interesting book about the Orphan Train.  This was a part of American history from 1853-1930; more than 120,000 children between the ages of 6 and 18 were removed from slums and city streets--mostly, from New York City and taken to the Midwest. 
Very controversial program to say the least. 
I have the copy of the book if you want to read it--just let me know.
