The Prescott Chronicles tells the enthralling life story of a great American family from earliest colonial times to 1976. This is done with actual writings from key family members. From Samuel Prescott in the 17th century to Julian Prescott, the fictious author of 'A History of the Modern Age' and an Assistant Secretary of State, who closes the book with his vivid testimony before the Senate Foreign Religious Committee.
The Prescott Chronicles is a great tour de force that draws the reader into the true world of colonial times, the Revolutionary War period, the early 19th century, the Civil War, and on into the modern era of the 20th century. the heros and the scoundrels of our national experience are felt as living people and history comes alive, personalized and compelling.
