Reseña del editor:
It is 1867 and the Confederacy is an independent nation. The battles have ended, but the struggle is far from over. In Shattered Nation, author Jeffrey Evan Brooks laid out a vision of the South winning the Civil War. The story now continues in House of the Proud. As the Confederacy approaches its first presidential election, John C. Breckinridge will face off against a coalition of extremists in a campaign for the new nation’s future. Northern abolitionists plot to aid the enigmatic renegade Saul, leader of a slave insurgency in Louisiana. Meanwhile, diplomatic machinations take shape in Europe as the Confederacy seeks a treaty of alliance with France and war looms between Britain and the United States. House of the Proud is a fascinating novel of alternate history sure to entertain and make you wonder what might have been.
