About this listen

Lottie Briggs flees war-torn Virginia during the American Civil War by taking a position as a Governess with a Georgia family. Lottie finds that life on the plantation involves multiple challenges beside teaching the family’s children. She falls madly in love with the warrior son, who escorts her to Georgia, endures privation, heartbreak, and triumph during the last year of the war.
