The Journals of Corrie Belle Hollister, Book Five. As the election of 1860 draws near and political tensions between the North and South threaten to escalate into a full-scale war, Corrie Belle Hollister finds herself thrust into the political arena. Her reputation as Californias Woman Reporter and her attempts to help Colonel John Fremont in the presidential election of 1856 have brought her to the attention of the leaders of Californias new Republican Party. And the handsome young political aide, Cal Burton, helps to convince Corrie that the future of Mr. Lincoln, and of the nation, depend upon the influence she can wield through her speaking and writing. Mounting conflict within the Hollister clan and in the nation at large bring Corrie to the realization that the decisions she makes will change her life forever.
