Chronicles of Arundel

From a Pulitzer Prize–winning historical novelist, a "full-blooded, heroic, human chronicle . . . of Revolutionary days in Maine . . . a fascinating story" (The Christian Science Monitor). Growing up in the rural colony of Arundel, Steven Nason hunted and traded among the Abenaki Indians while helping his family run the local inn. After the woman he has pledged his heart to is suddenly orphaned and ruthlessly abducted, Steven leaves home for the American wilderness to find her and bring her home. It's a quest that will occupy him even when he joins the Continental Army led by Benedict Arnold and travels north to capture Quebec. The trek tests Steven's mettle and shows him and his fellow soldiers the true price of liberty. An adventure-filled tale of romance and survival set in the years leading up to the American Revolution's little-known Battle of Quebec, Kenneth Robert's Arundel is "an achievement: a really fine and stirring historical novel (The New York Times). "A novel to defy the years." –The Philadelphia Inquirer
