Michener-style historical fiction follows South Carolina family through the years after they relocate to the Bahamas to avoid the American Revolution. Fun, thoughtful read --especially for those interested in waterfront locations.

I picked a rather shabby copy of this book up at a library book sale and was pleasantly surprised at how much I liked it! The story of multiple generations of the same family with ties to the southeast and the caribbean, including the military, pirates, southern plantation owners, island lovers, and government. Great historical fiction that will make you want to take an island vacation! ( )
