About this book

The second of the Blue and the Gray, On Land books continues the story of the Lyon family after Brother Against Brother. In the first volume a New Hampshire family moved to southern Kentucky just before the Civil War. The series follows two branches of the Lyon family from the same Northern home, who split over loyalty to the national government against secession. One brother inherits a large estate and about fifty enslaved people from a Kentucky relative, which brings plantation life into the series.

The author says he drew on state records, official reports and histories for the condition of the region. First published in 1895.
