Synopsis

The Earth Trembled is a historical fiction novel written by E. P. Roe. The story is set during the American Civil War and follows the lives of two families, the Villards and the Camerons. The Villards are a wealthy family from the North, while the Camerons are a Southern family who own a plantation. The novel explores the impact of the war on these families and their relationships with each other.The novel begins with the Villard family traveling to their summer home in the North. Along the way, they meet the Cameron family and become friends. However, as the war progresses, their friendship is tested by their differing loyalties. The Villards support the Union, while the Camerons support the Confederacy.As the war rages on, the families are forced to confront the harsh realities of the conflict. The Villards experience the horrors of battle and witness the suffering of soldiers and civilians alike. The Camerons struggle to maintain their way of life in the face of Union occupation and the destruction of their property.Throughout the novel, Roe explores themes of loyalty, sacrifice, and the impact of war on individuals and families. The Earth Trembled is a powerful and emotional portrayal of the Civil War and its effects on those who lived through it.Then Clancy remarked lightly, ""We had our share of disaster in the last August's cyclone. Lightning doesn't strike twice in the same place. The jar of Friday was only a little sympathetic symptom in old mother Earth, who, like other mothers and women in general, are said to be subject to nervous attacks. Suppose we settle down to our games.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
