Enjoy historical fiction? Like short stories?
Then dive into this collection of historical shorts by an award-winning author. You'll find stories of heroism, love, and adventure such as a panicked bachelor faced with an arranged marriage, a young boy torn between love for his ailing grandmother and duty to an empress, and a runaway Roman Senator’s daughter seeking a new life as a gladiatrix. Whether set in imperial Rome, colonial America, or a Viking raid, these stories bring to life men and women struggling to survive and thrive--the eternal human condition.
“The periods are terribly alive, the storytelling wonderful…”–Stephanie Cowell, author of Claude and Camille: A Novel of Monet
