Two young Southerners, friends despite their differing political views and backgrounds, enlist in the 18th Louisiana regiment of the Confederate Army: Robert Perry, wealthy and privileged, and irreverent Willie Burke, the son of Irish immigrants, face the trials of battle and find redemption in the love of a passionate and committed abolitionist, Abigail Downing, and in the courageous struggle of Flower Jamison, a beautiful slave. Filled with a cast of unforgettable characters, and penetrating a landscape of shattering Civil War bloodshed as few novels have, this epic from an American literary giant endows readers with the gift of experiencing the past through new eyes, while its timeless prose style -- at once luminous and brutal -- ensures the legacy of this bloodiest of conflicts will never be lost. 3273007 2002 White Doves at Morning: A Novel total:265|5:76|4:110|3:65|2:8|1:6| 265 1037 359 34 5 1 false false Mon Sep 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Mon Sep 01 05:37:53 -0700 2008 Fri Sep 19 06:45:05 -0700 2008 more...]]> 4 0 false false Tue Jun 10 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sat Nov 22 14:40:09 -0800 2008 Sat Nov 22 14:40:09 -0800 2008 more...]]> 3 0 false false Thu Dec 06 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Tue Nov 11 09:07:48 -0800 2008 Tue Nov 11 09:08:22 -0800 2008 more...]]> 4 0 false false Wed Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2003 Fri Dec 21 22:06:49 -0800 2007 Fri Dec 21 22:08:21 -0800 2007 Audible.com

Loved it - yet again James did not let me down!]]> http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=218735
