Not Without Courage

In the spring of 1863, General J.E.B. Stuart is in command of nearly 10,000 Rebel Cavalrymen... A survivor of Mosby's partisan raid on the Orange & Alexandria Railroad, Salina Rose Hastings finds herself in Culpeper Court House. Not even an invitation to a celebratory ball featuring time in the company of Jeremy Barnes, her betrothed, can dispel the menacing undercurrents of war.

Unable to wait on dreams postponed by yet another campaign, Salina makes a reluctant journey north to Pennsylvania, only to find herself caught squarely in the path of two converging armies and a three-day battle at Gettysburg-a battle which would come to be known as the "High Water Mark" for the Confederacy. Working alongside her brother, Ethan, an Assistant Surgeon with the Medical Corps of the Army of Northern Virginia, Salina does all she can to aid the wounded and the dying.

Stranded in enemy territory, Salina gathers the necessary daring to continue helping her fellow Rebels, but as the armies retreat and reform, she must face a new challenge which will require all the courage she can muster. She must count the personal cost of battle.

NOT WITHOUT COURAGE is the engaging drama of a Confederate family's personal battle for survival, honor, and courage in the midst of one of the fiercest battles in history.
