Explores Quaker and Lenape (Delaware) Indian philosophy and views of the world. Romance, adventure and education. Recipes of colonial cooking such as "Hasty Pudding" and "Johnny Cakes" included. Contains historical Glossary at end of book. Accounts of real events woven into romantic fiction. Entertaining way to study history. REVIEWS: "This was a really well written story.
