Book excerpt: William Hunter was a simple Indiana farmer who would have been satisfied to live out his life on a small piece of land with his sweetheart by his side. The war between north and south would change all that. Suddenly he would be thrust into the horror and agony that threatened to split the United States asunder. Somehow he had to discover a means to recover that which was quickly drifting away. Somehow he had to find a way to retain his sanity in this age of brother against brother, father against son.
