Description
The Yamacraw Bluff is a panoramic historical novel that spans centuries and continents. In 1730s London, Tom Ellis's life is turned upside down when he finds himself in a fight defending a drunken aristocrat, Jame Oglethorpe, who will go on to found Savannah, Georgia. This chance encounter sets Tom on a path that takes him across the Atlantic to America, where he becomes embroiled in a fantastical scheme to establish a new colony. As Tom navigates the treacherous world of colonial America, he must confront loss, internecine conflict, and revenge. With its vivid sights, scenes, and experiences, Yamacraw Bluff brings to life the untold story of this pivotal period in American history. Luke Pittaway is a Professor of Entrepreneurship at Ohio University, with a deep passion for colonial history and a desire to share it with readers in an accessible way.
