Christine Yates's review
of
A True Account: Hannah Masury’s Sojourn Amongst the Pyrates, Written by Herself:
"I want more of every character! Hannah’s adventures paralleled with Marian’s life in contrast to Kay on her own adventure weave an interesting story about these women looking for control over their own lives. I loved this. "

“...You can have this whole entire life, with all your opinions, your loves, your fears. Eventually those parts of you disappear. And then the people who could remember those parts of you disappear, and before long, all that's left is your name in some ledger. This...person -- she had a favorite food. She had friends and people she disliked. We don't even know how she died...I guess that's why I like preservation better than history. In preservation I feel like I can keep some of it from slipping away.”
