Incredible Insight into Colonial Life

This is one of the finest historical reads I have encountered and enjoyed. The personalities and social dynamics of the people of Revolutionary Era Maine are well understood and beautifully presented, in a flowing and artistic manner. The authors have done an incredible amount of research into history, society, and physical nature of the West Indian trade and a major colonial port, and an African snagged by them both; and understand and present them well. The book ranks proudly alongside the classics of Kenneth Roberts, and should receive the attention and praise its fine fine quality warrants.
