Background
Information
David H. Jones, born and raised in West Virginia, has been a lifelong student of the American Civil War. His research for "Two Brothers: One North, One South" took him into the swamps of Dinwiddie County, Virginia, to rediscover the lost location where a pivotal event in the book took place. In telling this quintessential story of the Civil War, he seeks to illuminate those tumultuous times so that readers will gain a greater understanding of this tragic event that first torn our country apart and then put it back together as the United States that we know today. The historical fiction is closely based on real people and actual events.
