"POWERFUL AND INSPIRING . . . [A] SUPERB NOVEL . . . The historical
detail . . . is outstanding."
--Rendezvous
As the ship Charity sails from England across the Atlantic, two
vastly different yet equally courageous women make the perilous
journey. Strong-willed, upper class Margaret Brent has invested in
Lord Baltimore's Maryland plantation because the new colony is her
single chance for a home of her own. Anicah is a teenage
guttersnipe who lives by her wits and quick tongue. Kidnapped off
the streets of Bristol, she is transported to the New World as an
indentured servant. But for both women, the future will bring love
and rewards they never imagined. . . .
A truly American novel of passion, dreams, and courage, MARYS LAND
tells the story of two women who build a new life in a verdant
country that is strange and threatening, yet gloriously sweet with
promise.
"Meticulously researched . . . [Robson] has an eye for the details
of everyday life and an ear for the rich and earthy language of the
period.--Library Journal
