Patricia Pierce's schrijven is diep geworteld in de historische resonantie van haar opvoeding op een boerderij in Ontario, waar het landschap zelf verhalen uit het verleden fluistert. Ze creëert verhalen die het leven belichten van buitengewone individuen die de geschiedenis hebben gevormd, en verweeft persoonlijke reizen met bredere culturele stromingen. Pierce bezit een scherp oog voor detail en sfeer, en brengt de essentie van meeslepende menselijke verhalen tot leven. Haar werk weerspiegelt een diepe waardering voor erfgoed, traditie en de blijvende momenten die ons collectieve geheugen vormen.

The story of Old London Bridge is a turbulent and varied one, spanning over 600 years from 1176 to 1832. In every period, the bridge was the focal point for war and conflict, from early Viking raids to the Civl War. In times of peace, the bridge was thriving commercial centre and an arena for many pleasures including spectacular national ceremonies, races, pageants, jousts and regattas. Thousands lived and died in the town on the bridge, a bustling community of merchants, craftsmen, thieves and rogues.
