From the narrow streets of the French Quarter to wind-swept Ponchartrain and the vast bayou country, the battle of New Orleans plunged men and women into chaos, tragedy, and a struggle for survival and revenge... Luke Coldiron came to New Orleans with 250 horses from the New Mexico territory. He found a city overrun by Union forces, a beautiful woman driven by fury, and an act of treachery that would pit him against a renegade marine commander. The daughter of a wealthy landowner, Susan Dauphin watched her world go up in smoke. Driven into a struggle against the marauding Union marines, she would earn one man's hatred, and another's undying love.

The acclaimed author of Winter Woman and The Seekers tells the magnificent saga of a city in flames, and of those who fought with honor and courage -- in the heart of a nation cleaved in two.

This book was released on 2023-12-26 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Christians we often struggle to find a balance between our secular and spiritual lives. This struggle can leave us feeling confused, disappointed, and troubled. We find ourselves questioning our place in the world, and we sometimes turn away from God, searching for answers in all the wrong places. However, with God's guidance, the answer is often found within the struggle itself. Our book speaks to people who are searching for meaningful and practical insight on how to follow God's word in their daily lives. The reflections provide a deeper understanding of scripture, while serving as a catalyst for love, hope, and peace to a broken world. Although intended for a Christian audience, the reflections offer relevant interpretations of scripture to all people, especially as they face personal struggles in their ever-changing lives. Unique in style, the reflections provide imaginative narratives and practical lessons that linger in the heart and mind. Although they follow the liturgical calendar, each one stands on its own and can be read at any time throughout the year.
