About the Book

In 1937, a young American woman named Frannie Potter goes off to fight in the Spanish Civil War to save the Republic and keep her friend Marty alive. Together, these two friends join the Abraham Lincoln Brigade, a cohort of idealistic young American volunteers determined to fight fascism in the prelude to World War II. Marty's love for Frannie drives everything he does. She is why he came to Spain in the first place. Frannie loves him too but not in the romantic way he wants. Both of their young lives are stamped by the ferocious fighting, the atrocities, the heat, the cold, privations, and their undiminished passion for the Spanish people and their cause. Within a year, the flower of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade has been reduced to a husk. Marty and Frannie are among the few who have survived. They refuse to surrender to defeat, accepting their own likely fate. Then a Soviet major, with his eye on Frannie, changes everything.
About the Author: Alan Fleishman has written four well-received historical novels: Goliath's Head, A Fine September Morning, La-ra's Shadow and Odyssey of Chaos.

His contemporary short stories have appeared in the Avalon Literary Review and the Pennsylvania Literary Journal. Earlier in life, Fleishman was a marketing consultant, a senior corporate executive, university adjunct faculty, a corporate board member, community volunteer, and an officer in the U.S. Army. He is originally from northeast-ern Pennsylvania where he graduated from Berwick High School and Dickinson College. He and his wife Ann now live with their Siberian cat, Leo, high on a hill overlooking San Francisco Bay. For more information on Alan Fleishman and his books, please visit www.alanfleishman.com.
