The Deerfield Massacre - James L. Swanson

This book's subtitle draws us in and gives us more context: A Surprise Attack, a Forced March, and the Fight for Survival in Early America. I was not familiar with this event in history, and the author has clearly researched it in great detail and used a wide-ranging compilation of sources to paint a picture of colonial America that I don't think we hear or see much about these days. I would love to read more about Eunice Williams (the daughter) - that is a fascinating story in itself.
