Redemption: A Family's Journey to Justice

by Brett Peruzzi, Paula Roberts

A Family’s Journey to Justice is a sweeping true story of one American family’s transformation across three centuries. Their journey spans continents and causes—from 18th-century Spain, France, and Haiti to Nantucket’s whaling shores, the South Seas, and the bloody battlefields of the Civil War and World War II. Along the way, this family evolves from lives entangled in exploitation and injustice to becoming passionate patriots and tireless seekers of justice.

This is a story of tragedy and triumph, of wrongs confronted and lives redeemed. Redemption reminds us that while the road to righteousness can be long, its destination is worth every step.
