Set in a New England seaside village on the brink of the American Revolution, Walker's Cove is a book of the heart . . . a very personal chronicle about the splendor of love that leaves no human emotion untouched . . . and no heart unrequited. Teenagers Suzannah Ellingwood and James Walker are brought together by chance to share their experiences: from youthful innocence and the first stirrings of love, through marriage, parenthood, the rupture of war and beyond. The reader feels the emotions and envisions scenes and images that are endearing, intimate, folksy and so profoundly personal, that one can feel a bond with all its characters. This remarkable romance promises a spellbinding experience and is based on family letters, archives, and real events that unfolded during the turbulent years of colonial America.
