Book Description
* The twenty-first volume in the unique Morland Dynasty series, which brings English history to magical life through the centuries.
Product Description
Benedict Morland's comfortable life is overset when an old enemy's dying wish leaves him guardian of an orphaned boy. No-one, including his wife Sibella, can understand why Benedict accepts Lennox Mynott into his household and, amid growing hostility at Morland Place, he takes the boy to America, to join his daughter Mary at Twelvetrees Plantation. Here, Benedict, as well as Lennox, fall in love with the Southern way of life, just at the moment when bitter civil war is about to destroy it forever.

Format:Paperback
This was a great book - as are practically all of the Morland Dynasty ones. I could guess the ending from the start but it didn't stop it being any less enjoyable. I loved Martial. Such detailed coverage of the Americal civil war too. The book is impeccably researched. On a slightly humourous note I think the author read Gone With The Wind a few too many times as I detected a few similarities. I would have liked to see a bit more of the family in England but perhaps that'll be in the next book

Cynthia Harrod-Eagles does it again! I was transported to the American Civil War and totally absorbed from start to finish.
