It captures the real depth of sacrificial love, care and compassion and their heroism during the plague outbreak in 1665-66. The trust and hope the families had in God to bring them through this tragic time is a real testament to their fortitude, as Kitty constantly, with her family, looks forward to a brighter and happier future. It's a great read. and my thanks to Anna for her factual insight and passion for our history.' - Joan Plant, Descendant of a Plague Survivor 256 pp. Englisch, Books.
