About the Book

Against the backdrop of America's Civil War, Whispers of Glory portrays the unity of family and the pull of personal desires and beliefs. For each member of the Morrow family-Henry, Sarah, and their five children-the war had different meanings. To Henry, the war was a calamity; to Sarah, a horror; to the Morrow sons, a Crusade; and to the Morrow daughters, an opportunity. In telling the story of the stand-off between the hopes of a father and the dreams of his sons; between parents who fear for their daughters and daughters who have yet to learn fear; and between autocratic husbands of habit and independent wives with a mission of their own, Whispers of Glory also tells the story of a nation. A nation, and family, divided; yet still striving to preserve important loyalties. As a family and as individuals, the Morrow family questions their beliefs, lose and regain hope, mourn their losses, and celebrate their good fortune. Encompassing the best and worst of us all, the lovers and the beasts, Whispers of Glory is a tale to quicken the pulse and touch the heart. Supported by careful research, Whispers of Glory explores the lives of these historical characters through their quotes, actions, friendships, and military skills. The novel features detailed historical descriptions of military moves, the countryside, and the town of Winchester, Virginia.
