Fantastic, engrossing, most-enjoyable read!
My summary reaction when I finished Brigid's Charge: MORE! Fantastic, a very enjoyable read. Cynthia Lamb has written an excellent tale of colonial life in South Jersey. I highly recomment this book to anyone.

Engrossing novel of an early American Quaker witch.
Wonderful period dialogue and authentic detail illuminate this fascinating story about an Irish woman who emigrates to pre-Revolutionary America, and her struggle between paganism and Quaker orthodoxy, between love of her husband & children and her attraction to a woman friend she truly loves. Highly intelligent and dignified treatment of controversial religious, cultural, ethical, and sexual issues in the context of a historical family saga, loosely based on the life of a real person who was an ancestor of the author.
