Description

In 1997, Charles Frazier’s introduction novel Cold Mountain made writing history when it sailed to the most truly effective of The Brand New York Times best-seller list for sixty-one months, won numerous literary prizes, such as the National Book Award, and continued to market over three million copies. Today, the precious National epic results, re-issued by Grove Press to coincide with the book of Frazier’s eagerly-awaited second book, Thirteen Moons. Sorely wounded and fatally disillusioned in the fighting at Petersburg, a Confederate soldier named Inman decides to go back once again to his house in the Blue Ridge foothills to Ada, the girl he loves. His trek over the disintegrating South brings him into intimate and sometimes lethal speak to slaves and marauders, bounty hunters and witches, both helpful and malign.
