"Caleb's Crossing" by Geraldine Brooks ****

●  Audiobook
●  US author
●  Originally published in 2011
●  Review:   Once again Geraldine Brooks delivers a marvelous work of historical fiction.  Set in colonial America,  the reader meets a cast of colonists and Native Americans,  who struggle to cohabitate.  As always, Brooks creates engaging characters whose relationships tell the tale.  She adeptly illuminates the common traits shared by all people, as well as the traits which are culturally based, and the complications of trying to force assimilation.  Excellent read.
