Story Behind The Book

The late Virginia Chute thoroughly researched this historic novel. The details and even the dialect are correct for the era of the first European settlement of Maine.

Reviews

<p>“[Virginia] Chute proved to be a knowledgeable historian on both sides of the Atlantic...she is an excellent storyteller and the creator of believable and enjoyable characters...T<em>he Remembrances of Marietta Lufford</em> is solid historical context. It has a good strong story. The language is sustained and believable...this is an impressive work and a delightful read.
