John McMorrow, a young philosophy professor from Clarksburg,
Virginia, abandons his home and position to fight for the Union
during the Civil War. He leaves behind a budding love affair with
Anna Lee Stone--and a father whose sympathies are firmly entrenched
with the Confederacy. He marches off to battle, his moral values
tested by fire, while those at home face the monumental struggles
of war's harsh reality.
John's circle of intimate friends is forever changed by time,
difficult choices, enormous struggles, harrowing adventures, and
extraordinary experiences. Old relationships are threatened when
hostilities cease and men lay down their arms. Union soldiers
return to the North as heroes, and former Confederates return to
the Southern states, their tattered gray coats earning them the
respect of virtually all their neighbors. But in embattled West
Virginia, how do former enemies rebuild their shattered bonds? Will
John and Anna Lee find the love they shared before the war?
Intertwined with the real history of the 12th West Virginia
Infantry, "The Reunion" captures the emotional struggles of those
caught in the War Between the States.
