Really good fictionalized history [like this] often gives closer reality to a period than do factual records. \u003ci\u003eChicago Tribune \u003c\/i\u003e \u003cbr\u003eIn 1631 Elizabeth Winthrop, newly widowed with an infant daughter, set sail for the New World. Against this background of rigidity and conformity she dared to befriend Anne Hutchinson at the moment of her banishment from the Massachusetts Bay Colony; dared to challenge a determined army captain bent on the massacre of her friends the Siwanoy Indians; and, above all, dared to love a man as her heart and her whole being commanded. And so, as a response to this almost unmatched courage and vitality, Governor John Winthrop came to refer to this woman in the historical records of the time as his unregenerate niece. \u003cbr\u003eAnya Seton s riveting historical novel portrays the fortitude, humiliation, and ultimate triumph of the Winthrop woman, who believed in a concept of happiness transcending that of her own day. \u003cbr\u003e A rich and panoramic narrative full of gusto, sentimentality and compassion. It is bound to give much enjoyment and a good many thrills. \u003ci\u003eTimes Literary Supplement\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Abundant and juicy entertainment. \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003e \u003cbr\u003eANYA SETON (1904 1990) was the author of many best-selling historical romances, including Katherine, Avalon, Dragonwyck, Green Darkness, Devil Water, and Foxfire.
