This review is from: Jarrett's Jade - The Story of the Founding of a Great Southern Dynasty (Hardcover)

This is the story of James Jarrett who arrived in Savannah in 1736, clad in kilt and tartan, the first of the Georgia Jarretts, tall, broad-shouldered and lean as a broadax, with a face less villainous than exciting.
He was a Highland Aristrocrat, Laird of Clan Jarrett. Part devil, part angel, he came to Georgia to take the wife who would help him found a New World Clan Jarrett, a great Southern dynasty.

This review is from: JARRETT'S JADE (Hardcover)

Set in Savannah, Georgia of 1736, this is a Colonial adventure. Arriving into this land is a Highland aristocrat named James Jarret from Scotland, proudly wearing his kilts and tartans. Jarret is determined to build a Southern dynasty, starting with an American wife, and he will use all his skill and bravery to find her and take her. A story that pits families against each other in war, even son against father as the story rolls into 1776.

This review is from: Jarrett's Jade (Hardcover)

I was hopeing for an honest description of the book,so as to make a purchase with confidence,and i was always willing to pay for that honesty. I was very happy ,and indeed,surprized to recieve what i had hoped for. A very old book,yes ,but in very good condition.
I will certainly do this again.
