Description
Nathaniel Starbuck, a Boston abolitionist’s son who has cast his lot with the Confederacy, is drawn into Robert E. Lee’s bold invasion of the North. As the Faulconer Legion marches toward the bloody confrontation at Antietam, Starbuck must contend with suspicion, shifting loyalties, and the brutal realities of a war that defies easy convictions. Set against the turmoil of the Maryland Campaign, the novel combines meticulously rendered Civil War battles with espionage, political intrigue, and the personal struggle of a young man searching for his place amid a divided nation. Bernard Cornwell’s vivid, fast-paced historical storytelling brings the era’s soldiers and commanders to life without losing sight of the human cost of conflict.
