About This Book
"Wayne Karlin's novel, The Wished-for Country, is set during the founding period of the Maryland colony during the mid-seventeenth century. The novel focuses on the entwined stories of James Hallam, a carpenter and indentured servant, Ezekiel, an African slave brought to Maryland from Barbados, and Tawzin, a Piscataway Indian, kidnapped to England when a child, and now back in America.".
"While Hallam goes on to become a soldier and a player in the politics of the Maryland colony, Ezekiel and Tawzin become the center of an outcast group of blacks, whites and Indians, who find themselves striving to reinvent themselves and their world."--BOOK JACKET.
