Historical fiction comes to New England with the epic novel, Portsmouth, a classical saga reliving the story of a 1623 fictitious family and twelve successive generations that bring New England seacoast history to life. The opening scene begins with the Abenaki, the Native Indians, who inhabited the land for thousands of years until the English settlers arrived in 1623 when everything changed! Portsmouth, the novel, marches through the city's history. Memorable characters interact with real-life personalities and historical events that shaped America. Relive our country's past and the colorful history of the New Hampshire seacoast through Portsmouth.'' From the early Puritans to the Sons of Liberty and the Revolutionary War, up through the Great Depression and World War II, the novel brings American notables such as George Washington, Ona Judge Staines, Major General Fitz-John Porter, Frank Jones, and Celia Thaxter into the reader's imagination. The novel Portsmouth celebrates the 400th anniversary of the founding of this historic seaport, so reminiscent of colonial times.
