Description
"Colonist Benjamin Waite, a devoted husband, father, and skilled military scout in King Philip's War, reluctantly obeys orders to guide a brutal attack against a camp of Algonquian Natives. After the catastrophic event, Benjamin is burdened with guilt and longs for peace. But the Algonquians, led by the revered sachem Ashpelon, retaliate with vengeance upon Ben's Massachusetts town of Hatfield, capturing over a dozen colonists, including his pregnant wife Martha and their three young daughters. Hatfield 1677 is a tale of three interwoven yet diverging journeys of strength and survival. Benjamin is driven by love and remorse to rescue his family; Martha is forced into captivity and desperately striving to protect her children; and Ashpelon is willing to risk everything to ensure the safety and freedom of his people. Based on the lives of the author's ancestors, this riveting and unforgettable novel gives voice to three vastly different experiences in North America during a time before the creation of the Declaration of Independence. Then, the land was but a wilderness and a battleground; equality was not yet perceived as self-evident; and liberty and happiness were nothing more than dangerous pursuits." -back cover.
