HISTORIC
NEWTON BOOK CLUB at the Jackson Homestead & Museum
The
next selection of Historic Newton's book club is Liberty Exiles: American
Loyalists in the Revolutionary World by Maya Jasanoff, winner of the 2012
George Washington Book Prize. The author provides a richly informative account
of the struggles and trials faced by colonial Americans who chose to remain
loyal to the Crown during the revolution and departed with the British after it
ended. A New York Times review praised the book as “smart, deeply researched
and elegantly written”. The book club is free and new members are always
welcome.
