With Lee in Virginia: A Story of the American Civil War Wikipedia page about this book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/With_Lee_in_Virginia Produced by David Reed and Liz Warren "With Lee in Virginia: A Story of the American Civil War" by G. A. Henty is a historical novel created in the late 19th century. The narrative centers around Vincent Wingfield, a young heir living on a plantation in Virginia during the tumultuous times of the American Civil War. The story explores themes of bravery, family loyalty, and the complexities of slavery, as Vincent navigates his own moral beliefs in a society deeply divided over the institution of slavery. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Vincent Wingfield, a bright and spirited teenager, who is caught in the midst of the contentious environment surrounding the impending Civil War. The narrative captures his relationship with his family, particularly the contrasting views on slavery held by himself and his overseer, Jonas Pearson. Vincent's inherent kindness clashes with Jonas's harshness toward the plantation’s slaves, leading to a tense dynamic as Vincent begins to question the morality of his society. As the story progresses, Vincent's character is defined by notable decisions, such as his confrontation with another plantation owner over the brutal treatment of a slave. This opening sets the stage for Vincent's journey, where he grapples with the moral dilemmas of his time while seeking to protect those he cares about within the broader context of war and societal upheaval.
