Memories

Klappentext

The lovingly remembered and longed-for world of the Confederacy breathes new life in this story of the Kentuckian General John Bell Hood and his love for the Southern, blue-blooded Sarah Buchanan Campbell Preston. The Confederacy watched Hood's quick rise to fame and glory in the telling battles that made him a Southern hero. Gaines Mill. Mary's Heights. Gettysburg. Chickamauga. Atlanta. Tennessee. But it was in the Confederate capital that he found and courted his "Buckie," seen by the romantic Confederates as the affair that captivated Richmond. Historians liken this love affair to the life of the Confederacy, but this story goes beyond what history has recorded to assure the reader that the general and his Buckie never lost their ideal love-just as the South never lost its love for the enchanting and seductive Confederacy.
