The Jewess of Savannah

By Alex Wilson

Sarah Steiner came of age and of social consciousness at the outbreak of the Civil War. Correspondence with her friend and eventual husband, CSA Major of artillery Stephen Rogers, kept her aware of the progress and fortunes of the war. Her nascent humanitarianism towards the plight of the slaves was bolstered by the capture of Savannah by General Sherman as he completed his ‘march to the sea’. But her struggle was just beginning for the subsequent war, Reconstruction, that was bitter and cataclysmic.

At 72, Alex's wife said 'Why not try writing?' Within 4 months he had six novellas on Smashwords and now, a couple of years later, 18. Obviously there was stuff lurking in there waiting to be said. Alex's wife is also his muse and editor, and a good one. They live in St. Petersburg, FL where there is a surprising amount of writerly activity.
