Book Review

This book review is for my HIS 332 class at Southern New Hampshire University.  It is on a book that I am using as a secondary source for my final paper for the class.  The book is by James Deetz and Patricia Deetz titled “The Times of Their Lives:  Life, Love, and Death in Plymouth Colony.”  It should be at least 4 pages in length and double spaced, 12 point Times New Roman font, one inch margins, and citations in Chicago (Turabian) format.  I have uploaded the Rubric.  Thank you!
