However, his life begins to change when he receives a long awaited letter from Chief Androve of the Boston Maritime Unit.

A wonderful read!,

This review is from: Sixty Jars in a Pioneer Town (Paperback)
This book kept me anxiously awaiting each turn of the page...it was truly a heartening story suitable for both adults and children. It was an easy read, and the imagery and descriptive language truly places you right into the center of this special little town. I am not a history lover, however, this book kept my attention until the very last page.

This review is from: Sixty Jars in a Pioneer Town (Paperback)
A joy to read, I had been hearing about this book for a long time before it was published. I couldn't put it down and despite its short length, it carried a very strong story with rich and real characters. Good for all ages, it sheds light into a time that is underappreciated in American History. I recommend this book to anyone looking for a good story.
