Description:
May 8 2 p.m. RSVP-Free Independent Publishers 2011 Silver Award for Best Regional Fiction for the North-East! After five years of spending a few hours each day with the main characters of this novel, Eva and Henry, A Cape Cod Marriage, I am going to sorely miss them. As the Civil War in the United States was ending, a little girl was born near the shores of Blackfish Harbor. Her name was Eva Weston Paine, and she was the first child of a sea captain who himself was from a very large family. She would be one of only two children. Her younger brother was born a year after she was. His name was Lewis, and he was to become my great grandfather. Just a short distance away from Evas home, there lived a young boy, Henry Smith, who was a distant cousin and an only child. Meet author Irene Paine as she discusses her book and experience daily life back in the South Wellfleet of the 1880s the decade of Eva and Henrys marriage.
