About this audiobook
What happened to the Acadian exiles after their forced removal from Nova Scotia? Few people know that many of them passed through the coastal town of Marshfield, Massachusetts, during one of the darkest chapters in North American history.
I Am Marshfield… The Day the Exiles Came brings this forgotten story to life through vivid storytelling, historical research, and the imagined voices of those who witnessed these extraordinary events. Experience the fear, resilience, compassion, and hope of families torn from their homes as they journeyed toward an uncertain future. Richly woven with the history of Marshfield and the people who opened their hearts to strangers, this audiobook is more than a history lesson—it is a moving story of humanity, survival, and the enduring power of kindness. Discover a chapter of American history that deserves to be remembered.
