SWORDS AND PLOWSHARES isan epic tale of one familys struggles in the cauldron that shaped modern America: The Civil War.More than merely a war novel, though, SWORDS AND PLOWSHARES traces three generations of the Barger family in an historically accurate narrative that extends from Tennessee to Missouri, and from the 1820's into the twentieth century.

The book focuses on the lives of two remarkable men, Allen Barger and his son James.It is a story of their triumph over the rigors and hardships of frontier life during the 19th century, of their love and sorrow, their struggles and battles, their successes and failures, and of the abiding religious conviction that gave them the strength to endure.From a genealogical prospective, the book is a living family history--historical and genealogical research have been combined to bring to life generations of an American family.From an historical perspective, the novel provides a grippingly realistic portrayal of life in mid-nineteenth Century America and of the hardworking, God-fearing people who built this nation and held it together when it was torn asunder.Allen Barger and James Barger typify countless nameless legions of the common folk that made America what it is today, and the retelling of their story honors every family descended from the stalwart stock of the American frontier.
