The Titans

I did not like this book written by John Jakes. Jeptha Kent is a reporter for his family's newspaper. About 9 years ago, he and his wife separated and she took their sons and remarried. Jeptha is an abolitionist, while his wife's new husband supports the Confederacy. Mr. Kent and his eldest son end up supporting opposite sides during the Civil War. This is the fifth book in the Kent Family Chronicles.
