When a horrific battle rips through Gettysburg, the farm
of
Union widow Liberty Holloway is disfigured into a
Confederate field hospital, bringing her face to face
with
unspeakable suffering--and a Rebel scout who awakens her
long dormant heart. While Liberty's future crumbles as her home is destroyed,
the past comes rushing back to Bella, a former slave and
Liberty's hired help, when she finds herself surrounded
by
Southern soldiers, one of whom knows the secret that
would
place Liberty in danger if revealed. In the wake of shattered homes and bodies, Liberty and
Bella
struggle to pick up the pieces the battle has left
behind.
Will Liberty be defined by the tragedy in her life, or
will
she find a way to triumph over it? Widow of Gettysburg is inspired by first-person
accounts from women who lived in Gettysburg during the
battle and its aftermath.
