Human Side of the Civil War

No battles were fought during the Civil War in the North Carolina mountains but bickering and murders happened between neighbors and within families as people picked sides. The independent-minded deep woods mountaineers wouldn't think of letting anyone or any government tell them what to do. William F. Kaiser brings to life the human side of living, loving and surviving on wits and guts during those turbulent times. His lifelong study of and fascination with the Civil War does not get in the way of his telling a good story. If you liked Cold Mountain, you'll be enthralled with Bloodroot.
