Kirkpatrick weaves a unique tapestry of the American experience, exploring events through their impact on eight lineages. Her approach connects individuals to the epic sweep of history beautifully. A worthwhile read for history enthusiasts and casual readers alike.-D. O?Reilly-JonesThis delightful new genealogical history work weaves threads from scores of American families and reintroduces them in the context of the events and geography that shaped their lives. The amazing amount of research is thoroughly credited throughout and even includes DNA studies. The author often refers readers to a variety of supplemental family and historical information in the impressive 38-page alphabetical addendum. She also provides a 17-page index. These I found to be particularly useful in picking my way through so many characters completely new to me, from religious and tribal leaders to whipped servants, barristers and soldiers from various rebellions and wars. As a result, for the first time in my life I have a true sense of much of my lineage in North America.-Z. KirkpatrickThe Chronicles of Doubt is a wonderfully distinctive work that runs the gamut from informative to entertaining. It will be of great interest to genealogists and fans of history alike. - L.
