Love and Carnage: In Death Comes Love

By Tim Deaton

Set against the brutal backdrop of the American Civil War, Love and Carnage follows James Calloway, a spirited young man from Georgia who joins the Union army despite his Southern roots. Through James's vivid, often harrowing recollections, readers experience the horrors of war-bloody battles, freezing camps, devastating loss, and deep emotional trauma.

Alongside comrades like Michael Stephens and Tyler Barrett, James fights with courage and grit, but it's his promise to a dying friend-to protect Barrett's daughter Annie, a battlefield nurse-that adds a tender thread of love and hope to the chaos. As James navigates a world torn apart by ideology and violence, his evolving sense of purpose, haunted memories, and budding connection with Annie highlight the emotional toll of conflict. Love and Carnage is a powerful tale of survival, brotherhood, and the possibility of love rising from the ashes of destruction.
