Celia Garth: A Novel (Rediscovered Classics Book 11)

Set during the American Revolution, this novel follows Celia Garth, a woman recently engaged to the heir of a plantation in Charleston, South Carolina. Working at a dressmaker's shop, she observes the bustling port city as it becomes a crossroads for the rebel cause, with supplies and weapons being unloaded and smuggled north. When the British capture and occupy Charleston, Celia's world is upended. As the rebel cause appears to falter, General Francis Marion, known as the Swamp Fox, leads American forces against the British occupation. One of Marion's soldiers recruits Celia to spy for the rebel side. Through the destruction of Charleston and the Carolina countryside, a new nation emerges—along with a love that transforms Celia's life.
