Children Of The Tide

When English ships arrive on the shores of the Chesapeake, a quiet world of forests, rivers, and tides begins to fracture. Kamaáru is a young hunter raised to listen to the rhythm of the water and the wisdom of his ancestors. Thomas Elwood-son of a Moor who crossed oceans to serve the British Crown-grows up between two worlds that refuse to trust one another. When disease, fire, and betrayal ignite conflict between settlers and tribes, the two boys find themselves on opposite sides of a war neither of them chose. But as the fighting deepens, they discover something the empire cannot understand: survival does not belong to armies or kings. It belongs to those who endure. From burned villages to secret councils in the forest, from fleets set aflame to the brutal Siege of Blackwater Ridge, Children of the Tide tells the story of a confederation that refused to disappear-and the unlikely friendship that became the bridge between worlds. Epic, emotional, and unforgettable, this sweeping historical novel reveals the truth behind revolutions that history almost forgot. The Story Of The Cheasapeake. Lost but never forgotten.
