Before
"The Wild, Wild West," there was a "Wild, Wild East." In honor of our
First President, I'm sharing a book about a love story set
during America's revolutionary war as it happened in upstate New York, a
place which was then full of Indians and many different settler
traditions.
GENESEE
by Juliet Waldron is an extraordinary book about love, hardship and
prejudice. It's well written and full of wonderful characters. Even
though they have many differences, Genesee and Alexander are true
kindred spirits. Ms. Waldron keeps you enthralled by, a little at a
time, giving tantalizing tidbits of their origins. This story isn't
sugarcoated, which is really refreshing. There are some instances of
violence, but they're brief and handled well. Anyone who enjoys an
honest, realistic story will love this one. Renee Burnette, Amazon
