Overview
Overview
Why would wealthy Philip Creighton leave his bride of only seven months to join the Union army at the outset of the Civil War--with the hope of being killed? That is the question at the heart of Creighton's Crossroads, Betty Larosa's novel of love, war, betrayal and retribution. Creighton's Crossroads is the first book in a four-part family saga. Philip Creighton is jarred from the privileged existence he's always known and is forced to re-assess his view of life after sharing war-time experiences with a cross-section of soldiers from different states. These experiences take him from fashionable Washington soirees to the bloody trenches of Petersburg, Virginia, but his emotional journey is even longer and more difficult. Larosa, who lives in Bridgeport, West Virginia, near the heart of Civil War country, with her husband Gene, felt inspired to write about the human wreckage left in the wake of that war. During her research, she visited many of the battlefields and all the locations mentioned in the four books.
