Helpful Score: 1

As an avid reader of books centered on the Civil War, I found this book to be an excellent portrayal of the trials and tribulations of a country divided. Eugenia Price not only tells a deep, involved story, but she also presents the facts behind the Civil War from the perspectives of rebels, unionists, and southern union sympathizers. Every perspective is explored in this book. Ms. Price also uses real people in her books which makes them that much more interesting. She writes her story from actual letters that were exchanged by some of the people in the book like General Lee, Mary Custis, W.H. Stiles, and Eliza McQueen Mackay. I would highly recommend this novel to anyone who loves stories of the Old South, The Civil War, or just a good old-fashioned love story. This book will not let you down!
