Synopsis

In "A Little Maid of Old Maine," Alice Turner Curtis crafts a charming tale set in the early 18th century, vividly portraying the life of a young girl navigating the complexities of colonial New England. Through rich, descriptive prose and carefully researched historical detail, Curtis immerses readers in the landscape, customs, and challenges of the time, emphasizing themes of resilience and familial loyalty. The narrative is peppered with engaging dialogue and vibrant characters that bring to life the unique cultural nuances of Maine, showcasing both the beauty and struggles faced by its early settlers. Alice Turner Curtis, an acclaimed author of children's literature in the early 20th century, drew inspiration from her own heritage and the stories of her ancestors. Born in 1868 in Maine, Curtis possessed a deep-rooted connection to the region, which undoubtedly informed her depiction of its historical context and character. Her background as an educator also shines through in her ability to intertwine adventure and moral lessons, making her work both entertaining and enriching for young readers. "A Little Maid of Old Maine" is a treasure that invites readers to explore the past through the eyes of a spirited young girl. I recommend this book for anyone seeking a blend of adventure, history, and heartwarming storytelling, perfect for young readers and those young at heart.

    A cinematic tale of passion, war, loyalty, betrayal, and retribution “These events I relate are the living seeds, and they will bear bloody fruit, I promise.” So says Ulysses, King of Ithaca, as he recounts the origins of the Trojan War. Renowned Greek mythologist Bernard Evslin masterfully depicts the ten-year war: its beginnings rooted in discord among the gods; the seduction of the famed beauty Helen of Troy; and the spectacular development of the Trojan Horse, Ulysses’ cunning ploy to win the war. Evslin brings to life the dramatic twists and turns of this classic tale of human folly, mortal heroism, and the brutality and brilliance that have come down through the ages.
