Louella Bryant - Beside The Long River. It follows a young girl, Sarah, a Puritan girl who, with her family, travels to New England to start a new life. The family has to undertake a the dangerous journey to the Connecticut Valley. It is there that she first meets a Native American girl and her brother. But when the Pequot War begins, Sarah cannot try to protect her new friends. I really enjoyed this book, loved the time period it's set in and enjoyed the fast pace of the story. It was a different take, seeing this time period from a young girl's eyes and especially a girl who's behaviour is controlled. Recommend for anyone who enjoys the Colonial New England time period ( )Esta resenha foi escrita no âmbito dos Primeiros Resenhistas do LibraryThing. A short historical fiction novel about Connecticut in the 1600s. The author has a brisk writing style that I really enjoyed, and the historical aspect was also interesting. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
Muskets, stinging arrows, and even slings, Beside the Long River delivers action behind every tree of early American forests. In the early seventeenth century, Puritan teenager Sarah Lyman realizes the leaders of English settlements will destroy anything in the way of their expansion in the New World, including wolves --and Indians. Louella Bryant brings spirited Sarah to life when she discovers the rules in Massachusetts Bay Colony are even stricter than in England and joins her family in following Thomas Hooker to establish the city of Hartford. Sarah figures in Connecticut she might be able to dress and act as she wants without fear of punishment. But Pequot Indians edging close to the town's borders must be eliminated, even though Sarah has made friends with a native girl and falls for her brother, the brave Ayaks. Dressed as a boy, Sarah enlists with the English infantry marching to Missituck (Mystic) in hopes of stopping the massacre of the Pequot tribe and the man she loves. Beside the Long River is based on historical people and events, including the brutal and bloody Pequot War of 1636. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
