Story Behind The Book
My wife and I have always enjoyed antiques, especially (for me anyway)
antiques related to the Civil War or that era. We frequently visit antique
shops wherever we go and peruse the stock. One day we were visiting a series
of antique shops in s distant town and found an interesting piece. As we
stood there looking at it we began discussing what life must have been like
for the people who owned that particular item. That discussion formed the
basis for The Antiquarian Chronicles. While the book took several years from
that point to reach its final form, that was how I came up with the basic
idea for the story line.
