Fleeing Falmouth
Autor Carl W. McClureen Limba Engleză Paperback
The hurricane is a blessing in disguise, for it provides an escape from their impasse. The "Cheryl Belle," a sailing ship caught by the storm in the Channel, takes refuge in Falmouth Harbor. Through great effort and no small amount of luck, the families book passage to New York on the ship.
Disease, hardship, and personal tragedy curse the voyage, but they emerge to begin a new life in a new country.
Narrated by a most unusual character, and punctuated by a cavalcade of succinct commentaries, "Fleeing Falmouth" is a rich source of nineteenth century English history. Immerse yourself in it to learn how the families go on to farm once more, only to be torn apart by yet another calamity in their new home.
