ALL QUIET ALONG THE POTOMAC
Book 2 of
The Battle Cry of Freedom Trilogy
January 1862.
The War Between the States has raged for almost a year now, and yet the Union's largest army huddles in Washington while the Confederacy remains defiant. The refrain is the same North and South: All quiet along the Potomac. But soon enough the snows will melt and the killing will begin again.
In Mayfair, Sarah Cutler plots an escape from her husband Henry — not just for herself, but for the slaves who live on the Cutler plantation. Half a continent away, the young fugitive Tom Roscoe witnesses the savagery of guerilla fighting on the Kansas-Missouri border. Meanwhile, Mae Jane Freeman gathers the remnants of the Roscoe family as they seek refuge from the encroaching tempest of war.
For the slumbering Army of the Potomac is now finally stirring. Twin brothers JJ and Jem Roscoe, one clad in blue, the other in gray, are destined for a fateful meeting somewhere between the rival capitals. And for the fledgling journalist Ben Freeman, still learning to navigate the snake pit of Washington politics, the titanic clash must be more than a bid to restore the old Union; it must instead be a new birth of freedom.
Experience the continuing epic of the Roscoes and Freemans in a novel that melds intricate historical detail, thrilling action, and raw human emotion. It is ALL QUIET ALONG THE POTOMAC — until the bugles sound another charge!
