It is the eve of the Civil War, and the delicate fabric of a young nation threatens to tear apart as volatile issues divide its people. James and Jeffrey Birmingham, brothers, now find themselves and their families on opposing sides of a great and terrible conflict. James is a wealthy Bostonian with a son who is a passionate and outspoken abolitionist, and a daughter who must hide her identity as the writer of controversial newspaper articles. Jeffrey, who lives on a South Carolina plantation, has a son who joins the Mormon Church, then leaves home after a failed attempt to free his family's slaves. Jeffrey's cowardly younger son ruthlessly preys on the weak; and his young daughter despises her family's beliefs — finding more kinship with the slaves than with her own flesh and blood. Caught in the middle are the slaves, who, along with immigrant families, are desperate to find their place in a country that is rapidly drawing its battle lines. From the bustling streets of Boston to the lush plantation fields of the South, from the drudgery of camp life to the terrors of the battlefield, millions of lives are about to be irrevocably changed... A House Divided, volume one of the epic series Faith of Our Fathers, is one of the most ambitious novels in LDS publishing history. Chronicled in this remarkable book are the lives of compelling characters in the midst of astounding events — set forth and guided by the merciful hand of our Heavenly Father.

Write-Up Out Of Books Faith of Our Fathers: A House Divided (Faith of Our Fathers #1)

A very entertaining read concerning one family in particular which finds itself divided by the conflict; half being union and half confederate. The author, the tone of the story, is decidedly union, anti-slavery, but the human element is tangible enough to make the reader sympathize with the southern families as well as the northern families, both being tragically impacted by the war. It is a fast read and certainly invites you to continue the saga into the following volumes.

*Whew* Finally finished this one... While I ended up quite enjoying it in the end, I had a really really hard time getting into this book for a few reasons: Firstly, it literally takes the first 1/3 of the book just to introduce all of the characters, of which there are about a million of them. I understand why there are so many - now we get to see every point of view possible, but it took a long time to figure out who was who and get to know everyone. Secondly, this is a series about the Civil



I found the concept of this book super interesting with so many unique perspectives of the Civil War. The well crafted characters and their unique views were really interesting to read about. My only complaint was that it moved between so many different perspectives so quickly. It was a good thing there was a character guide at the front because it was a lot of people to keep straight. It was kind of disappointing when I would get really interested in one characters storyline and it was so

I picked this book up as a used book because I enjoy historical fiction. The minute I finished reading it (about 3 minutes ago) I got on the computer to see if the sequel had been published. Three of them have. I am ordering Volume Two as soon as I leave this site. I was drawn into the Birmingham Family and its many branches immediately. The characters are very real to life and Mrs. Allen tells us where she deviates from actual history to make the story fit. I can hardly wait for the next book

I loved this when I read it years ago! Wonderful Civil War novel.

I enjoyed all four books in this series, in fact I enjoy them so much that I own them and have read the entire series at least three times. This is a historical fiction series that takes place during the civil war and it follows the lives of two families that are related; one family lives in the South and one famiy lives in the North. There is also an LDS twist to this series which made it even more enjoyable for me(0:
