The Mapmaker's Children: A Novel
njmom3 avatar reviewed on + 1389 more book reviews


The Mapmaker's Children by Sarah McCoy follows two women - Sarah Brown in the 1850s and Eden Anderson in 2014. Sarah's story is personal and global - the story of slavery, abolition and the time leading up to the Civil War in the United States. Eden's story is about personal sorrow, a house, and a doll. Sarah's story is the more compelling one, but Eden's story feels more alive.
