Trade paperback. Presumed first edition/first printing. [6], 364, [6] p. From an obituary posted on-line: "Born in Atlanta, GA, she moved to Washington, DC at the age of six, attended National Cathedral School and graduated from Sweet Briar College. She was actively involved with many civic causes especially those focused on protection of the environment and the needs of terminally ill children. She loved history and in 2005 researched and wrote Four Mile Tree, A Jamestown Legacy." From an on-line posting: "Four Mile Tree, directly opposite Fort Jamestown, is one of the earliest plantations established in North America and, although considerably smaller than its original 3, 000 acres, is still privately owned and farmed today. This book is a fictionalized history of the transplantation of culture that commenced with the coming of the English Adventurers in 1607. It dramatizes the early years of near starvation, feuds, and Indian massacres, the arrival of the Cavaliers, the terror from the pirates, and the climax of the War of Independence." Very good. No dust jacket. Signed by author. Cover has minor wear and soiling.
