Sinopse
Características

The trilogy of historical novels invite readers to enter the world of the isolated island, where the village of Perkins Township was incorporated and thriving in 1847 but abandoned in 1938 when ferry service was discontinued, and continues throughout the time that the caretakers, Steve Powell and Parker Blen, farmed the island. The historical novel begins with the arrival of Englishmen at Sabino in 1607, encompasses the time period of first contact between coastal explorers and fur traders with Abenaki natives in the 1600’s, (who named the island Sowan-gen=Swan, translated as tribe or gen from the island of eagles), and forward into the twenty first century.
