Sobre IBD

A Town of James is the first of the Books of Amerika book series, each of which tells of a unique period in American history. This premiere book transports the reader to Jamestown, just on the cusp of Bacon’s Revolution of 1676. Set amidst this fervid backdrop, we follow the story of two brothers, twins, separated at birth, but both bearing the name of James.Joseph Eldredge revives the age old twin-comedy in this poetic drama, brining to life again all the free beauty of 17th century English - with annotations - to immerse the reader in a unique experience of History and Dream.
