I received this from Netgalley.com. 

Dense with historical data, and  "inspired by the true story of the once racially integrated Malaga Island off the coast of Maine. 

Such a conundrum because it was the characters that made the history.   Although I found the history interesting,  I was never truly vested in the characters.
