Synopsis "The Wheelwright Family Story"

This is an illustrated history of the extraordinary Anglo-American Wheelwright family. In 1636 an outspoken Puritan, Reverend John Wheelwright, left his native Lincolnshire and headed for the new Boston Bay Colony. His stay in Massachusetts would be short lived. Persecuted and banished, Reverend John went on to found two New England towns and a dynasty which now spans six continents. The Wheelwrights have produced explorers, engineers, clerics, consuls and a family of cannibals. There are philanthropists, philanderers, psychoanalysts, scientists, soldiers and sailors. A sea captain became a pirate. A lawyer became a gold-digging sportsman and a kidnapped child was transformed from Puritan to Catholic mother superior. The Wheelwright's story, complete with black sheep and skeletons a-plenty, spans four centuries. Hundreds of illustrations and family charts, drawn from years of research, bring 580 pages of this most remarkable family's history to life.
