Description
With the state of Florida for a backdrop, Raines in the Day, is the story of one man’s life as it unfolds through the first half of the 20th Century. Rich with the bittersweet gifts of life and infused with the beauty of the sea and the outdoors, Raines in the Day details John Raines journey through loss, love, and healing.
With appeal to readers of Patrick Smith’s A Land Remembered, and Richard Powell’s I Take This Land, John Raines’ journey is a portrait of a man grappling with inner and outer changes, struggling to understand his own heart, and fighting to move beyond the losses and limitations of his past.
The second in the Raines Family trilogy, Raines in the Day takes up where the first volume, Men Without Hate, left off.
Advance Praise
Excellent, as was the first book! Love the history within the story. Thank you for the words that provide a clear visual of each character as well! Thoroughly enjoyed this read and once again, anxiously awaiting the final narration of this trilogy!!!
Congratulations Gene-you did it again!!!

'Raines in the Day' by Gene Lee was given to me by Netgalley in exchange for an honest review of this book.
John Raines had quite a story to tell. His life was during a significant time in the history of the USA. It spanned from the early 1900s to the 1960s. John witnessed the Spanish flu epidemic, prohibition, WWI, WWII and the Korean war. I appreciated that the book was written in such a eventful time in history. 'Raines in the Day' is a well told story which kept my interest. John"s personal story was well told.
However, I was hoping to feel more of the mood of the eras he live through. The story of John was told as a personal story with very little attention paid to the remarkable historical events of his time. Thanks NetGalley for sharing this book. It was a good read.
