This is the story of Renée Chastain Harris, a woman who lived at Rose Hill Plantation, Virginia during the Civil War. The year 1863 was going to be a difficult year for Renée with her husband and son away fighting in the war.People who know me will attest to the fact that I'm not easily impressed. But Joette Baldwin did it!--she impressed me with her rich descriptions that spoke to my imagination. After I finished this story I felt like I had been back in time and met the people at Rose Hill. I had cheered for Renée in her glorious years and wept with her in her moments of sorrow.I think Joette gave us a good look at how life for ordinary people could have been during the Civil War.Well done, Joette!
