Book Synopsis: THE STRONGS--A powerful family dynasty founded in the fires of America's revolutionary dream, their roots had sunk deeply into the rich Virginia soil--courageous men and women quick to fight with valor, quick to love with unremitting desire.
BROTHERS--Jed Strong, the elder, his temper made him a dangerous man; his dreams made him an ambitious one. Andrew, the younger, a steely honesty ruled his heart, but war unleashed a savage lust for vengeance.
SOLDIERS--United by family ties, divided by loyalties, one brother turned his full measure of devotion to the Confederacy...the other to Union blue.
LOVERS--As fiercely as they seized their chances in war, they took the women they loved--untameable Jessica, tall proud Maria--whose searing passions equalled their own.
PATRIOTS--Their allegiances bound them to blind duty...at Shiloh, at Gettysburg, at Appomattox, until one would lose with desperate heroism, one would win with matchless glory...and continue the legend of this great American dynasty.
