Reviews

The background material on Ipswich and the family is really excellent and is nicely supplemented with historical materials on Ipswich... The book is well written and very accessible. (Dr. Barbara A. Hanawalt, Prof. of History, Emerita, Ohio State University) The great feature of Professor Boyd's book is her clear narrative style and her attention to detail, particularly in the historical section of her book...I enjoyed the book immensely and learned from it... (Dr. Robert Forman, Professor of English and Classics, St. John's University)
