Classic folk tales for modern times, great visual imagery
Imagine old tales from the British Isles updated with insights into the history, people and places of New England. The author features folk heroes based on classic New England characters and events, portraying the sophistication of earlier times while drawing subtle parallels to the present, reminding us that "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."
Bonus: If you know Hancock, Boston, and the Monadnock region, you will enjoy your own memories of the Hancock Inn, Parker House, train stations and mountain hikes.
