"Massive, lusty, highly readable...A graphic, fast-paced amalgam of
good, evil, love, lust, war, violence, and Americana."--The Washington
Post Book World
From the first shots at Fort Sumter, the Hazards and the Mains are
divided against each other--and themselves. Some will experience the
horrors of war on the front lines on some of the bloodiest battlefields
of the Civil War. Some will give their lives for their beliefs. But all
will be caught in the triumph and tragedy of a conflict that destroyed a
country's innocence--and forged a nation.
