Stories of Swormville: A Historical Novel (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798998545795)

"Stories of Swormville is an Impressive Feat of a Novel"

A sweeping generations-long narrative following two families, from their mid-19th century emigration from Germany to their lives in a small farming community in Western New York.

Sailing across the Atlantic. A young widow struggles to support her children. Electricity lights up the Pan American Exposition. A tragedy in the Niagara River.

Based on actual events, the portrayal of the drama, joys and hardships of these true characters, is intense and relatable. By entwining their stories with the rigors of the era and the unique history of the Buffalo area, the novel achieves a rare blend of scope and subtlety.

"It's a book that lingers in the mind not because of a grand spectacle, but because of the quiet, persistent humanity it captures. For readers who enjoy novels that mirror the texture of real life, Stories of Swormville is well worth the time."
