Grey Skies Over Dixie

By Wayne Joseph Gombar

A soldier's honor. A nation divided. A conscience awakened.

Thomas Wainwright is a decorated veteran, a planter, and a loyal son of South Carolina. When war erupts, he dons the gray uniform not out of hatred, but out of duty, to his land, his family, and the values he believes define the South.

But as the fires of the Civil War consume everything around him, Thomas begins to question the very cause he serves. From the blood-soaked fields of Manassas and Vicksburg to the smoldering ruins of Charleston, he witnesses the destruction not only of a country, but of an identity rooted in contradiction.

As emancipation reshapes the world he once knew, Thomas must face his own complicity, reconcile with a brother in blue, and find a path forward alongside the very men his past once oppressed.

Grey Skies Over Dixie is a sweeping historical novel of conscience and change, a story of a man caught between honor and truth, and of a South struggling to rise not again, but anew.

What do you fight for when the banners fall-and the future begins?
