Welcome to another episode of A Baker’s Perspective Podcast! Today I am delighted to share my conversation with T. Elizabeth Renich! First of all, she used to work in the NFL. I won’t hold it against her that she didn’t work for Pittsburgh lol. Second of all, her love of history is inspiring! I learned a lot from her book and our conversation 🙂

AmazonOne for the land and one for the war-
One for the church, and pray for no more... -AnonymousSerenity Ravensworth is the lone sister among four brothers who seem to match descriptive lines of an ancient, anonymous poem. The youngest has no inheritance according to English law. The next brother in line studies to be ordained at Oxford. The soldier has been in British North America fighting the French and their native allies. And the eldest usurps control of Fernsby Hall. Reckless gambling endangers all the Ravensworth brothers and puts Serenity squarely in harm's way.
Without the aid of Serenity's soldier-brother, former grenadier Marcus St. James would not have made it back to England. Wounded and left for dead in the wake of the massacre at Fort Michilimackinac, Lieutenant St. James is found alive eight weeks after and five hundred miles distant from his last known whereabouts. His disturbing lack of memories gnaws at his sound mind and his sense of loss is compounded by unanswered questions.
An introduction to Miss Ravensworth inspires St. James to collect shattered pieces of the life left to him. Predicated by stronger feelings than he is able to articulate, his timely rescue of her deepens the growing attachment between them. Compelled to follow the pull of unexpected opportunities in a new land, Miss Ravensworth braves the Atlantic crossing, while St. James-at Benjamin Franklin's behest-returns to the Pennsylvania colony as a member of Charles Mason and Jeremiah Dixon's survey team.
Far from the familiarity of England, will these two find purpose together or challenge apart as Parliament dictates stricter regulations and imposes taxation on British citizens dwelling in the North American colonies? The Seven Years' War is over, but King George III's Royal Proclamation is the first domino to fall on the way to igniting a revolution.
