A Historical Novel about Elizabeth Fone who married Henry Winthrop then Lt. Robert Feake then William Hallet. A courageous woman who defied Puritan conventions and belifs.
This is a work of fiction. Although it is said to be well-researched, there are reasons why an author creates a work of fiction, as opposed to a biography. Thus while most of the facts in this work may be true, it is not possible to tell which are, and which are not, and so a citation of this work in support of a fact means nothing without a supporting citation of a non-fiction source to make it clear that particular fact is one of the true ones. So it is pointless to cite this as a source.
