Delirium of the Brave Book
In the great southern literary tradition, Delirium of the Brave brings you into the sweeping passions and politics of legendary Savannah, Georgia-from its Irish-Catholic aristocracy to its descendants of slavery, from its majestic homes and sparkling beaches to its murky swamps and mysterious islands where family secrets and even a huge fortune can lay buried for generations.Savannah, 1864. Confederate captain Patrick Driscoll and his dear friend and servant, Shadrack "Shad" Bryant, leave their tearful families to defend Raccoon Island off the Savannah coast, the last best chance to save the city from Union attack. But soon after their arrival, the two men are killed in a Yankee bombardment, leaving behind their great family legacies-and the legend of the priceless Driscoll family treasure they have buried on the island.Now, over one hundred years later, amid the political intrigue, personal vendettas, and the lingering effects of this country's wars, four friends will meet on Raccoon Island to find where those brave men buried Driscoll's treasure-and uncover the dangerous secrets of Savannah's most prominent family. And while the sins of the fathers may indeed be visited on their sons, it is the sins of the sons that bear a terrible price of their own...AUTHORBIO: William C.
