Again, as in all of Martin's books I was overwhelmingly pleased. I have read all of his books at this point. They are thoroughly researched and set out in a "Michener" type of scope. He gives a great lay of the land, spirit of the people and feel for the times. With this Cape Cod book the Indians are a main part of the plot and they were in real history. The exception is this time they are portrayed a lot more fairly. The maps on the inside of front and back covers are extremely helpful, since the names and coast line have changed since that time.

If you are looking for an engrossing read, this could be the one you are looking for.
