Summary

With the conclusion of the 10-volume Civil War Battle Series, the multiple strands of the story are woven toward their resolution. Members of the Brannon family are involved in battles spread across the country. In the Shenandoah Valley, Mac and Titus fight alongside Fitzhugh Lee. Nathan Hatcher wears the Union blue in the Dakota Territory, while in the Deep South, Cory fights against William T. Sherman and Henry rides with Nathan Bedford Forrest in Alabama.

In the spring of 1865 the war reaches its climax at a crossroads in Virginia known as Appomattox. Soon after, the war is brought home to the Brannon farm when carpetbaggers move into the South and the family must decide whether to fight or flee.

Find out what happened to the Brannon family in the rest of the Civil War Battle Series.

Beautiful storyline, absorbing characters

The end of one of my favorite series of all time. A story that flows across the US with multiple storylines and absorbing characters. Sad to reach the end of the incredible series.

end of an era

as a brit I've found this series to be fascinating, growing up in 60/70s with cowboy films this story brought out the historian in me, to follow from start giving a quite refreshing honest look at both sides, the good and bad, but as in all war the civilians suffer most, especially mothers who never see thier sons again. the research must have been extensive for names of characters but also the places of small skirmishes otherwise lost to time.
an epic adventure set over 10 books, captivating as the Brannon family, 5 boys, a girl, and thier mother, spread across Central and Southern America through trials and tribulations.
narrated consistently throughout with great expression and voice characterization.
I hope there's time to read again one day.

Classic series

Have just finished book 10 of this outstanding series and would recommend it to anyone who likes to get their teeth into a great story set in a significant and troubled period in American history. I’ll listen to this again.
