1666 by Lora Chilton is published by Sibylline Press, an imprint that seeks to to "publish the brilliant work of women authors over 50!" Lora Chilton is member of the Patawomeck Tribe. The book is based on research through interviews with tribal elders, colonial documents, and a study of the Patawomeck language. This book is a story of courage, resilience, and survival. It is about a journey home. It is the story of the fact that, despite every effort to destroy them, the tribe survives today. An emotional, heart-wrenching story recounting an unforgettable history.
