Description
The Bowman Legacy is a novel of love and war. Lillian Vance is now Lillian Bissett. She and her husband Louis, her friend Althea, along with three freed slaves from the Gloria Plantation move to Timbuctoo, an all black town in Burlington County, New Jersey. Soon after Lillian and her family settle into their new community, they learn that the town is a stop on the Underground Railroad. The family willingly become active in the movement to abolish slavery.
A few years before the outbreak of the Civil War, a young girl searches for freedom from a life of solitude. She has been abandoned and left to fend for herself at a very young age. Josiah Gilbert is accused of murdering the Overseer on a Maryland plantation and must run for his life. Samantha and Josiah's search for freedom will bring them to Timbuctoo where they are welcomed into the Bissett and Bowman families. They too will become active in the fight to free the enslaved.
When Civil War is declared, all the young men of Timbuctoo are anxious to fight. It is a hauntingly brutal and bloodied experience that will change all of their lives.
