Period Rush: This three-volume work describes the odyssey of seven modern day Civil War Reenactors as they are kidnapped and forced to live through the actual Battle of Gettysburg. A blend of historical & science fiction, the trials of the Fighting
21st is not only about the battle and the American Civil War but also the internal struggles in which we all suffer to find true peace.

Rich with history, suspense, and a touch of the supernatural, Witness to Tribulation is a moving tale of generational bonds, resilience, and the eternal presence of family.
