The Civil War alters life for a Louisiana plantation mistress and a poor seamstress in this novel by the New York Times bestselling author of Jubilee Trail.

Corrie May Upjohn stands on the levee, watching men unload the riverboats and wishing she could travel far away. A poor preacher's daughter, she is only fourteen and her life is already laid out for her: marriage in a year or two, and then decades of drudgery.

At nearby Ardeith Plantation, Ann Sheramy Larne lives in luxury, but feels just as imprisoned as Corrie May. Their lives could not be more different, but when the horrors of war and Reconstruction come to Louisiana and the Old South begins to fall, these two women will band together to survive.

The narrator who did the reading is not the best choice. The voices that she used for the different characters did not sound like genteel southern people. As well as the dialogue between the characters was interpreted as more inflammatory then I think it should’ve been. I have loved these stories for many years and was excited for an audio version, but sadly I am disappointed in the performance

Narrator is not the best choice.

If you want to know Southern History & details unique from history books, read the trilogy. I think it’s all done well. Very entertaining.
