Ribbon of Love is a beautiful romantic story of colonial America woven within the framework of history. Because so much of the story is based on actual people and events from the Eastern Shore of Virginia, it is like the print version of a docudrama. An Appendix at the end of the book delineates the facts from fiction by chapter. "Faced with possible torture for their religious beliefs, Henry and Mary Pattenden flee 17th century England, experience a perilous trip across the Atlantic only to arrive on the barbaric shores of pre-Revolutionary War America where they endure further hardships in the colonial and primitive days of America with Indian massacres, illness, death, loneliness, love and greed to practice their Christian faith in this historical novel."
