Rich with unforgettable characters and history, intricately plotted and utterly absorbing, this is a stirring saga of early Manhattan and the beginnings of medical science told by a master storyteller.

I enjoyed reading and learning about the early settlers of what is now New York City. The story goes through several generations of families and the author does a good job of describing the characters and their feelings. If you like historical fiction, you will probably like this book.
