Praise for THE SILVER BOAT: Will strike a chord in every mother, daughter, or sister. -- Marie Claire Popular Rice, in her mellifluous style, captures the essence of family and sisterhood as each character deals with love and loss. -- Booklist Rice's writing effortlessly conveys the way family can bind as well as buoy us, reminding us that when the sea of life gets too choppy, by setting our prows toward the places that made us, we will find a safe harbor. Another winner from one of America's most beloved authors. -- BookPage Rice enriches familiar themes of family, failure, redemption, and romance with a watercolor-lovely portrait of Martha's Vineyard and sketches of the tug-of-war between sea and sand, rich and poor, development and preservation characteristic of the island. -- Publishers Weekly Compelling . . . a satisfying and worthwhile ride. -- Library Journal
