Waves of Wheat is a creative historical nonfiction novel being written by me, Shari Edwards, to tell the story of the Arthur Dibbens family, who came to America in March of 1872. The Dibbens family had been on the Isle of Wight, a small island just south of mainland England, for centuries. There are many Dibbens/Jarman cousins still living on the island.
