Time travel, once again, with award-winning author J.A. Snow as she takes us on another journey with her ancestors. You will go to war with Private Eddie Snow, visit the Sacrifice Rock with Mercy Snow of the Wampanoag tribe of old Cape Cod, and travel westward with Bertram Snow to the Great Dust Bowl of the Great Plains.

In earlier books in the series, we met the Snow family of Porlock, England, traveled with them through the bloody streets of London during Tudor times, crossed the Atlantic with the original Pilgrims and now stand with them in the American Revolutionary war. Based on over 30 years of genealogical research into the author's own ancestors, this is a story like no other. There is love and hardship; there is treachery and murder. There is honor and courage. 

Volume two in the series An American Family follows the Snow family on to the bloody streets of London during Tudor times where they experience the dreaded plagues, horrible executions, and persecution for their religious beliefs. There are ghosts in the monastery and scandals afoot, and an intimate look into the lives of the Tudor royal family.

One such woman was Constance Hopkins, my 11th generation great-grandmother who came to America in 1620 on the Mayflower.
