He finds the place in ruins, livestock gone and his family near starvation. Jack and his wife, Annajean with the help of their two sons and a Cherokee friend, manage to get a small crop planted.<br /><br />In early July, l865, for badly needed cash, Jack and two other hardened veterans of the Confederacy deliver a load of whiskey from Knoxville to New Orleans through the lawless and war torn South. The journey highlights a rich tapestry of life and adventure during this bleak period. A horrific incident in the Louisiana bayous transforms Jack Grady into a legend, a heroic symbol so badly needed by people beaten down by historic events.<br /><br />Meet this beleaguered farm family from the mountains and get a perspective of our nation that transcends and enhances textbook history.<br /><br />The Angels’ Share was awarded the bronze medal for historical fiction in ForeWord Magazine’s Book of the Year Award in 2003.<br /><br />Check it out at <a href="http://www.ascendedideas.com/angelsshare.htm">http://www.ascendedideas.com/angelsshare.htm</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/21647290-114282569714244971?l=ascendedideas.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Ascended Ideas ePublishing Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17208253058756051151noreply@blogger.com40tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21647290.post-1140654285677939852006-02-22T16:21:00.000-08:002006-02-22T16:24:45.686-08:00Sir Thomas the Eggslayer by Judith V.
