Winston Churchill 
Crisis [EPUB ebook] 

Regarded as one of the most significant literary figures of his era, American historical novelist Winston Churchill helmed the school of literary naturalism in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries. The spellbinding novel The Crisis focuses on the events leading up to the outbreak of the Civil War. The story takes as its center the Brice family of Missouri, which is torn apart by a complex web of loyalties to those on both sides of the battle.
