Synopsis

In any family, as each generation arrives, a notional torch is passed. At the time this book begins, however, in the late 1800s, it's a metaphorical kerosene lamp. Often, it shines with joy. Other times, it's darkened with the lampblack of mourning. The lamp is fueled by all the dreams and the fears of immigrants arriving in a new land. Through centuries of war and peace, famine and feast, they carry their dedication and faith. Inspired by family oral tradition, a genealogical project, and deep personal emotions, Reverend Jean Dee shares these glimpses of the past through the medium of historical fiction.
