It is always hard to rate a historical non-fiction that was very readable so I go with a 5 star as default.
Incredibly interesting details of colonial founding families within a very small geographical area in the land of my birth. Not an area I know intimately but one I have travelled through a number of times.
As always with nonfiction I learn just another piece of the puzzle of life.
Enjoyable
