Escape From Chickamauga. The Civil War makes heroes from unremarkable men and forces even the most complacent into action. It has the power to transform a naton, a city, a soul. And for one woman it did just that. Caroline Baxter is no typlical Southern Belle. Raised by a freed slave, she doesn't quite fit the mold. She can hunt, drive a wagon, and flatly refuses to flutter a fan. Ever optimistic, she forges on no matter the odds. When war arrives, she finds her self challenged in ways never imagined. Her life changes dramatically when she is forced to kill a man. Sotckard Weston was far from typical himself. Fighting for the wrong side has earned him instant disinheritance from his family. Just as well for he lives a double life. Always the pessimist, he walks through life with a great and guarded caution, no matter what is promised, even love. Both join forces, a pair of mismatched misfits, thrust together by the circumstances of war, with one goal in mind, survival.
