From Chronogram Magazine...11/1/12

Taylor Thatcher is a 12th-generation New Englander, born into a “fast-paced but solemn world” of “hospitals, funerals, weddings, hospitals, funerals.” During the end days before a Millennium Conference, his life intertwines with his troubled half brother Bingham, an alluring Israeli photographer, and the indigenous past. Columbia County resident Wheelwright writes with an architect’s vision and intricacy, courting big themes as he follows gnarled family roots deep into bedrock.

The Midwest Book Review says:

The story of generations flow is all quite vast. "As It Is On Earth" is a novel from Peter M. Wheelwright as he crafts a novel of generations, stemming from the Pilgrims and Puritans who came to Maine, one Miryam Bluehm, an Israeli student, comes in touch with the twisted history of his ancestors, from deeply religious New Englanders to extinct Indian tribes. "As It Is On Earth" is a riveting novel of times and its changes, very much recommended reading.
