The Life of Colin Phelps

By Kevin Kelley

A sweeping historical novel tracing a boy's journey into manhood. Set against the backdrop of poverty in the streets of London during the 1850s and then in America, where Colin's life is shaped by the events leading up to and including the Civil War.

A coming-of-age story during extraordinary times. The reality of slavery, the struggle of abolitionists, the yearning for freedom, the complications of love with an Irish girl, and the horrors of fighting in the Civil War all combine to weave a captivating story.

Readers who appreciate the emotional depth of Ken Follett, the humanity of Charles Dickens, and character-driven historical and contemporary fiction will find themselves drawn into Colin's journey.
A book to be savored and enjoyed.
