Author Event: Karl Rhodes - Susanna
A burning bridge. A river crossing. A desperate escape from the Civil War—and that was only the beginning of Susanna’s journey. Orphaned as a teenager, Susanna Heatwole married her guardian, Henry Brunk, a Mennonite who refused to fight in the Civil War. After Henry escaped to Maryland, Susanna braved enemy lines to join him. Finding the bridge at Harpers Ferry on fire, she forded the Potomac River and reached Hagerstown as Confederate forces closed in. Get your signed copy of Susanna and find out what happened to this remarkable woman in the second book by author Karl Rhodes.
