This novel in verse tells the stories of two historical women, Lydea Gilbert and Katherine (Kate) Harrison, who lived along the frontier of the Connecticut River in the mid 1600s. They were healers, midwives, farmers and ordinary women who faced the struggles and joys of life in a wild new land. They were women in a Puritan culture, women of intuitive genius and healing powers, who lived through times where feminine power and the value of women's lives was suspect and condemned.
