The epic family saga from the writer the Los Angeles Times called "the godfather of the historical novel" spans decades and generations in the city that changed American history for all time!
Charleston follows the lives, loves and shifting fortunes of the unforgettable Bell family from the American Revolution through the turbulent antebellum years to the savage defeat of the Confederacy-and represents America's premier storyteller at his very best.
Quotes by John Jakes
From Wikiquote“The syndicated journalist?” “The syndicated muckraker would be more like it,” Dr. Walker said. “Mister Sensationalism. Specialist in the exposé. Long on headlines, short on facts.”
I think I’m as normal as the next guy. But I won’t go after what I want regardless of the price. Doing that nullifies the worth of whatever you’re after.
Oh, a few temple priests have been predicting dire things in an effort to improve public morals, but no one takes them seriously.
