Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - A Forgotten South. A Divided Land. A Love That Defied Nations.Set in 1813 Mobile, Alabama-before the rise of cotton empires, before the South was defined solely by slavery-this sweeping historical debut offers a powerful reimagining of a land on the edge of transformation. Juliette Seville, a spirited seventeen-year-old with dreams beyond her family's expectations, is suddenly caught in the crossfire of empires. As Mobile braces for invasion during the War of 1812, Juliette's life changes forever when she meets Lieutenant Samuel Turner, a twenty-two-year-old orphaned soldier sent to defend the city.Their relationship blossoms amid chaos, crossing lines of culture, class, and country. Mobile, a city still under the influence of French, Spanish, British, and Native American traditions, becomes a backdrop for love and survival as two young people search for identity in a land not yet fully claimed-or understood. Around them swirl ambitions of conquest, shifting borders, and the quiet resilience of those who refuse to be erased.This is more than a love story. It is a vivid, historically accurate portrait of the American South before it became 'the South'-a frontier still in flux, rich in culture, diversity, and untold struggle. With characters drawn from both fiction and fact, this novel explores the forging of Southern identity through personal courage, cultural conflict, and deep emotional transformation.With unflinching clarity and lyrical storytelling, Richard M. Lytle brings readers into a forgotten world-an early America where competing nations, native lands, and personal dreams collide. The novel offers a fresh, deeply human narrative that challenges long-held assumptions and re-centers the voices too often left out of Southern history.Book Highlights:A powerful historical novel set before the antebellum South took shapeA richly multicultural setting in 1813 Mobile, AlabamaA poignant love story amidst war, displacement, and identity crisisA dynamic female protagonist navigating duty, hope, and self-discoveryInspired by true historical figures and events, rooted in deep researchAbout the Author:RICHARD M.
