My new novel, Chase The Wild Pigeons

My novel, Chase The Wild Pigeons: A novel of the Civil War, is set during the Civil War, but the story of friendship is just as timely today. This story is not just one of war and manuevers–far from it. It is a story of two boys learning the meaning of true friendship, real trust, and love that is binding among men–in this case, young men.

I addressed many of the subjects of the day, so of course, I couldn’t avoid the issue of slavery. I tried, but the story kept leading me back. I decided to just dive in. I researched extensively for my story, and I hope I got it right. Slavery was just as complex as the war, maybe more so. Let me know what you think.
