Mary Elizabeth Chapman is loath to leave the only home she has ever known, but the religious strictures of England have become more than her separatist father can bear. In 1620, they board the Speedwell for the New World. Her future husband, carpenter William Lytton, who has been hired to spy on the new colony, travels on the Mayflower. What they face when they land are harsh realities and hardships of life in a wild and untamed land.
VERDICT Adventure and espionage feature prominently in this dynamic new historical series from Woodhouse (Out of the Ashes), which tracks one family from the inaugural voyage of the Mayflower through the end of World War II. Book clubs and genealogy buffs will delight in seeing how the history rolls out with each succeeding generation.
