Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Step into colonial New England, 1752, and meet James Pyper: Farmer, Friend, Adventurer. With the death of his mother, eleven year old James has found himself helping his father keep the family farm running, but still manages to find time for exploration with his best friend, Benjamin Huckin. Their adventures and choices together will lead them in strange roles: as stowaways on a gundalow, befriending an Albanian warrior, and stuck in the mud at a local pig wrasslin contest. Full of period detail and interesting historical facts, Forgotten by Time celebrates the joys of a simpler time, while shedding light on some of the difficulties - revolution, oppression, poverty, disease - faced by the hardy families making their homes in colonial New England.
