Our ancestors stayed strong during the Civil War by working as a community. Loving each other, passing along knowledge, and showing respect are still qualities in people today that keep our nation great.
A Dividing Stream is a tale of how inheritance, combined with hard work and friendship, provided a way of life in the Deep South. It depicts the lives of people during a hard time in our country. The story is a portrait of how two families in Alabama (one rich plantation owner and one struggling farming family) are brought together by the cruelty of war. Love, grief, intrigue, courage, and passion are all represented in this epic novel. As you become attached to the characters, you will cheer, cry, and laugh out loud. There are moments when you feel that you are with the people in the story, experiencing their emotions, seeing the landscape, and feeling the breeze on a hot summer day.
No matter how old you are, the color of your skin, or how much money you have, A Dividing Stream shows that love, kindness, and respect are what truly matter.
