Razors Edge was written for my family. It is based on events that a family struggles with leading up to a second civil war in the United States. The name of Razors Edge comes from three things. First, Razor is for the Arkansas Razorbacks. Edge is for the overlook located in Devils Den, Arkansas. Second, Razors Edge represents the division of the country by the actions of the Government and the general public not standing for their actions. Razors Edge shows how one person can unite the masses under one strong belief. This is one mans opinion about how the Governments wasteful spending, policies, and actions can cause chaos throughout the country. The main family characters in the book are named after actual members of my family.
