Exploration

The Stanfield Chronicles

De: David Tory

Narrado por: David Tory

Spies. Sodomy. Starvation. Severe cold. Indian attacks. A plague of sickness and death. And a love story, too.

Isaac Stanfield is a young man with a thirst for adventure. He leaves his home to become a sailor on a merchantman, the Sweet Rose, and through ingenuity and sheer luck, finds himself in the middle of the drama and explorations that precede the departure of the Mayflower for New England in 1620.

Exploration is Isaac's coming-of-age story, capturing the turbulence of the times through his observations and experiences. Suspenseful, poignant, and expertly researched, David Tory's novel brings to life an engaging cultural history of English seafaring exploration and intrigue in the early 17th century.

Exceptionally Good Historical Fiction

Exploration touched every level of my being - intellectual and personal. I felt deeply invested in the adventures and development of the characters. It made me stretch my knowledge of the times and opened a mature understanding of things glossed over in history class.

And I was surprised how good a choice it was for the author to narrate the book himself. I can't wait until his next book.
