Carrell does a great job of bringing us into the intimate worlds of her characters, and making us care about them, as she fleshes out her historical novel. Her descriptions of smallpox are vivid. I would have liked more connection with the Turks to better explain the utter faith in their inoculation methods; seems a big jump of faith for a lady of such cloistered aristocratic English culture. I did like the counterpoint of England and the American colonies as the story unfolds. This book will make you grateful for the 21st century!
