My husband read Stiff and loved it and I've been meaning to read it ever since - especially with a physical copy sitting on my shelf - but haven't managed it. Mayflower sounds really good! One group of my ancestors came over shortly after as well and I'm fascinated by what the conditions must have been like.Katherine Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12126062556416434416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32315311.post-88979141876563524272016-08-23T10:26:47.704-07:002016-08-23T10:26:47.704-07:00Your books always sound so cerebral, but I like th...Your books always sound so cerebral, but I like them.
