As the Cannon Roar

Not just another book about the Civil War. This is a hard look into the minds of the people who lived in the era prior to the war. It is also a study of why some men fought for the South, while a brother fought for the North. It is a harsh look at the pain death brings to families. The slave issue was not paramount in the outbreak of the war. Everyone had their reasons concerning why a war should be fought, and those reasons tore families apart. Families fought battles and sons and husbands died because of those reasons. Some families never recovered. This in-depth look into a wealthy family of the Antebellum era will show how far the family must go to heal and forget the strife their personal opinions have caused. It is a realistic story-gritty, sad, happy. Love abounds among those who forgive.
