Full of American history that you won't find in text books. It is riddled with typographic and other formatting errors, but the list of references is impressive and the substance of the text make up for the flaws.

Excellent book. Radune tells the story of the Pequot plantation in Connecticut. Very well researched. He seems to be good at geneology.
