I Wouldn't Have Missed it by Ogden Nash
The superb New York Times bestselling author delivers a sweeping epic set during the early days of the Civil War. In 1853, Carolyn Vinton is left alone and pregnant after her fianc , abolitionist doctor William Saylor, disappears. After his stepbrother convinces her that William is dead, Carolyn accepts his offer of marriage, not realizing that she is being drawn into an elaborate ruse by her new husband and his father, a pro-slavery senator--and that William is still alive. Their passionate reunion takes place in the midst of the violent Civil War, as abolitionists and pro-slavers battle over the Kansas Territory. Now only their willingness to sacrifice their lives for their beliefs--and for each other--can save them.
Ogden Nash was born in New York in 1902. He published his first children's book, The Cricket of Caradon in 1925. He would publish 19 books of poetry, as well as being on the staff of New Yorker magazine. Nash died in Baltimore, Maryland in 1971.
