Indian summer, 1607. Intrepid explorer and mapmaker Samuel de Champlain has founded a new and precarious settlement in Annapolis Royal, New France (presentday Nova Scotia). As winter looms, two threats emerge boredom amongst the men and the deadly sickness scurvy. Champlain hits upon the idea of a moveable feast an order of "good cheer" where nobles and men can enjoy good local food, excellent wine, and camaraderie. Separated by the breadth of a continent and exactly four hundred years is twentyfirstcentury bluecollar worker Andy Winslow and his friends, whose urban landscape is threatened by encroaching environmental and economic disaster. In alternating narratives, award winning author and master storyteller Bill Gaston bridges the divide across land and time in this illuminating story about survival, love, friendship, and feast.
