Two years ago I first learned of the disaster purely by chance. How could I never had heard of this event? It inspired me to research and learn as much as possible, then to write a novel on the tragedy. Why a novel? Because I write historical fiction and felt I could breath life into the disaster from a soldier's perspective.<br /> <br />"Sultana Awaits" follows 2 fictional brothers, Andersonville & Cahaba survivors, from Vicksburg to Memphis. I took great pains to accurately weave historical events into their experiences onboard. I'm happy to say the book is now epublished. You can learn more at my website. I would be honored to have the opinion of a Civil War historian such as yourself. Thank you in advance,. http://paulwandrews.wordpress.com/books/sultana-awaits Paul Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17366428208342454376noreply@blogger.com
