Excerpt from John Eax and Mamelon: Or the South Without the ShadowThe two stories that compose this volume are printed in this form because I love them. Almost a decade has passed since they were written. I feel old while I read the proofs, as if looking upon a swift-grown child. I have not changed them - I could not. To me they are parts of a great panorama which I tried to paint with the whole vast scene outspread before me. To change a part would mar the harmony of the whole.I was first impelled to attempt the fields of romantic fiction by the weird fascinations of Southern life.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Fire. It had ripped Seffie from her family and stolen her dearest friend. Will she allow it to destroy her one chance at happiness? Growing up a slave, Seffie served as companion to a sickly white girl and learned to read and write and even speak French. But her life of relative comfort soon comes to an end. When loss and tragedy drive the joy from her life, Seffie quickly learns to guard her heart and hide her past. Secretly, Seffie nurtures a new dream: to seek freedom in the North. But even if she succeeds, can she face the final test of fire? Can her wounded heart learn to love again? Or is it too late? Why danger would stalk such a peace-loving soul was a mystery no one in Greens Crossing ever quite understood except those involved. And they were not the kind of men who talked. On this particular day in the fall of the year 1869, the local KKK had decided to modify their tactics. They would strike in broad daylight and in plain sight, in order to teach a lesson none in the community would forget. And so as the fifteen or more white-robed riders galloped toward Greens Crossing a little before noon, the burning torches in their hands were not to light their way as would have been the case had the raid come in the middle of the night. They intended to put the fire to another use. Carolina Cousins - Book 3
