The sequel to Earthly Joys and every bit as good. The story continues with John Tradescent's son inheriting the family business and follows his travels across the sea to Virginia, where in his quest for new plants and trees he becomes involved with the Powhatan Indians. The book follows both the civil war in England and the fight between the settlers and the Powhatans.
