Tangerine Skies: A Bahamian Family Saga - 1624

This is the story of John Minns, a Quaker abolitionist who was shipwrecked near Nassau, Bahamas in 1800, and was rescued from a watery grave by Rosette, an African slave who was part of the cargo on board. In time, John and Rosette fell in love and this novel is about their subsequent adventures and their rise to prosperity. The book transports readers to 19th century Bahamas, and its many historical facts are gently imparted through conversations between the cast of colorful characters within its pages. It also examines the complexity of race relations in the colony at that time. This novel makes a compelling family story of slavery, freedom, equality, and love.
