The Wedding Portrait

More about the book

...the lyrically told tale of Tiny Garrett a child of the Civil War in the South, the record of her heroic spirit, her family's struggles, her loves and losses, and the eventual transcendence and acceptance that her intelligence leads her toward. The details of the age are painted with a fine brush and a careful eye for the difficult times, and the characters are almost without exception people you wish you had known. Warm and engaging, the story will linger in memory long after the book's last page is turned.
