Synopsis The River Wife by : Jonis Agee
From acclaimed novelist Jonis Agee, whom The New York Times Book Review called “a gifted poet of that dark lushness in the heart of the American landscape,” The River Wife is a sweeping, panoramic story that ranges from the New Madrid earthquake of 1811 through the Civil War to the bootlegging days of the 1930s. When the earthquake brings Annie Lark’s Missouri house down on top of her, she finds herself pinned under the massive roof beam, facing certain death. Rescued by French fur trapper Jacques Ducharme, Annie learns to love the strong, brooding man and resolves to live out her days as his “River Wife.” More than a century later, in 1930, Hedie Rails comes to Jacques’ Landing to marry Clement Ducharme, a direct descendant of the fur trapper and river pirate, and the young couple begin their life together in the very house Jacques built for Annie so long ago. When, night after late night, mysterious phone calls take Clement from their home, a pregnant Hedie finds comfort in Annie’s leather-bound journals. But as she reads of the sinister dealings and horrendous misunderstandings that spelled out tragedy for the rescued bride, Hedie fears that her own life is paralleling Annie’s, and that history is repeating itself with Jacques’ kin. Among the family’s papers, Hedie encounters three other strong-willed women who helped shape Jacques Ducharme’s life–Omah, the freed slave who took her place beside him as a river raider; his second wife, Laura, who loved money more than the man she married; and Laura and Jacques’ daughter, Maddie, a fiery beauty with a nearly uncontrollable appetite for love. Their stories, together with Annie’s, weave a haunting tale of this mysterious, seductive, and ultimately dangerous man, a man whose hand stretched over generations of women at a bend in the river where fate and desire collide. The River Wife richly evokes the nineteenth-century South at a time when lives changed with the turn of a card or the flash of a knife. Jonis Agee vividly portrays a lineage of love and heartbreak, passion and deceit, as each river wife comes to discover that blind devotion cannot keep the truth at bay, nor the past from haunting the present.

Synopsis Austin, Missouri by : Debbie Stevens Morgan
Hoofs of wild beasts treaded heavily on the prairies of what would become Jackson, Cass, and Bates Counties in Missouri. The trails left behind led the animals to death by area Indians. In turn, death came to the Indian on the same trail, by the eastern settlers, and these dusty trails led the carnal man to murder and destruction. In no other place is it more evident, than in these western Missouri counties, of neighbor killing neighbor, during the Civil War. As boundless prairies became lawless,. men were killed in cold blood on their own farms, and in their own towns the churches filled with hatred toward one another. Countless women were left widowed, children left fatherless and homeless during the Civil War on the Missouri-Kansas Border. Austin, Missouri: Where I Call Home details the lives of families, past and present, residing in the small villages of southern Cass County, Missouri. Included are two diaries of Union soldiers take us from Missouri - Kansas border conflicts to the battlefield in Gettysburg. The rich history of the people of Cass County, was silenced when they were put to rest in the silent city known as Austin Cemetery. Now, their legacy speaks loudly for the first time, documented in the history of where they called home. Step back to a boy's simple life in Missouri and to a little girl's terrorizing childhood days in England during WW II. Relive the history of the Missouri farm, where the author lived for 60 years, this was the scene where the creeks and river were her playground which once flowed with the blood of man. Much has been written of the devastation of the Civil War on our home land, but the process that mended the heart has been overlooked, until now. God chose the charred and blood stained land in and around the town of Austin, Cass County, Missouri to bring healing through a simple bowl of beans.
