Publisher Description: In The Broken Violin, Abigail Bosworth's life is drastically changed when her wealthy British family flees Philadelphia in 1769. Anti-British sentiment is growing, and the Revolutionary War will soon erupt. After Abigail's father closes his shipping business, they move to the Mohawk Valley in rural New York state and join a settlement of German Palatines, which is the nationality of Abigail's mother. To blend into the small village of Stone Arabia, Abigail's father opens an apothecary like his father in England, and Abigail becomes his assistant, an uncommon role for a woman in the late 1700s. |
