A young Confederate widow struggles with her powerful attraction to a former Union cavalryman. It was difficult enough to get through the war and be taken seriously as a businesswoman, now she's forced to battle her own feelings for the scarred veteran. At the same time, the richest man in town is using the delinquent mortgage on her small ranch to pressure her to marry him. These tensions play out in a lawless town in Kansas immediately after the Civil War.

Stalingrad was one of the largest, bloodiest, and most famous battles in history as well as one of the major turning points of World War II. For four winter months during the battle, German and Soviet forces fought over a single factory inside the city of Stalingrad. Lavishly illustrated with photos and maps, Island of Fire presents a day-by-day—at times hour-by-hour—chronicle of that pitiless struggle as seen by both sides. The book is unparalleled and exhaustive in its research, meticulous in its reconstruction of the action, and vivid in its retelling of the street-by-street, hand-to-hand fighting near the gun factory.
