Oxford Press, 2006, NEW, From the Back: 1763 was a pivotal year, witnessing the end to a long round of warfare in Europe and America, and the conclusion of a peace settlement that set in motion enormous changes. Great Britain tried to manage those changes with disastrous results. The Scratch of a Pen looks at how 1763 laid the groundwork for the American Revolution, but it is far richer than that. Its panorama includes chiefs and commoners; winners and losers; men, women, and children; Indians, English, French and Spanish. With striking clarity and graceful prose, Colin Callowy explores every nook and cranny of this extraordinary year, revealing blunders, deceit, treachery, tragedies, and triumphs that would in time turn the world upside down and change America forever: Quantity Available: 1.

Four British aristocrats and one Irish servant start their journey in England with visions of finding gold in the wilds of Canada. It begins easily enough, but soon disaster meets them at every turn. Readers will be drawn in by the strong characterizations, the intriguing plot, and the single-minded resolve of these men to reach their dreams.
