It is there that the two will begin a life free from the turmoil of the upheaval of the churches under the rule of King James. Although they don't know it yet, it is there that they will begin a family story of 404 years-and counting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHistorical records brought to life through engaging narrative prose, 404 Years follows the Haney, LeFevre, Beaman, and Stuteville ancestors of Cella Anne, from that first voyage in 1621.

Interspersed with these stories is Cella's own journey as she grows up in a U.S. Air Force family, leaves an abusive marriage, earns her Ph.D., and works for social justice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLooking at what was built by those who came before us while recognizing privilege, 404 Years honours where we've come from and shows us that it's never too late to make decisions that will shape the future.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eAnne, Cella:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Cella Anne lives in Golden, British Columbia, at the doorstep of five Canadian national parks.
