註釋

Across the verdant forests, lush fields, stormy seas, and riotous streets of 1800s America unfurls David Beckett's new adventure, a tale centered on the friendship linking young William Finnegan and wise Thomas Garrett. The author's commitment to biographical research and his gift for engaging dialogue breathe life into a plethora of real-world figures, true 19th Century villains and heroes. In these pages, furtive, anti-government conspirators, voodoo priestesses, dragoon soldiers, savvy politicians, bounty hunters, intrepid explorers, conniving lawyers, commercial tycoons, bold suffragettes, and clever smugglers vie for survival and supremacy, each battling to reshape our young republic. The Chords of Memory tackles complex, nuanced subjects with care and compassion. Ultimately, this rousing work of historical fiction spotlights what's best and bravest in our national character. -- U.N. Ambassador Sichan Siv
