Book Synopsis
The Journal of Virgil Fray Lovejoy, 'My Struggle Through the Civil War,' (Small Print Version)
is a gripping novel taken straight from the letters, newspaper articles, first-hand accounts, and journals of Civil War soldiers. This extensively researched work is the brainchild of author Chris Jacobellis who spent over 30 years as a Civil War living historian hobbyist. Follow Virgil from his days as a college student to his farm during the last days of the Civil War. Take this journey back in time before political correctness, when the truth was pure and factual, not contrived to serve a particular agenda. The language is rough and honest. Virgil Lovejoy will grow as a man and a human being right before your eyes. A Southern boy who doesn’t support slavery nor the social norms of the day yet fights to the last with every ounce of his blood. This novel was written for persons who have no interest in history. It’s a human story set against the backdrop of the American Civil War.
