About this ebook
Beckoning Candle is a sweeping family saga that spans four centuries. It is the story of two great nations and Randy Willis's ancestor's struggle from tyranny-religious and political.
John Willis and William Bradford were born in England in the 16th century. Both were Separatists because they separated from the Church of England, ruled by a king. They were later contemporaries in the small village of Plymouth Colony, in the New World-America. Generations later two of their descendants fell in love!
