Exceptionally researched and keenly accurate toactual events, this harrowing novel expands uponthe story of poet Walt Whitman, whose docu-mented compassion for the wounded and dyingsoldiers of the Civil War brings him to Armory SquareHospital in Washington, DC, at the bedside of Rebesoldier William Prentiss. Just after the fighting hasended, Williams brother Clifton, a Union officer, isadmitted into another ward of the same hospital,and Whitman becomes the sole link between thetwo boys and their fractured family. Through theirstory, the narrative is swept from the hospital toMedfield Academy in Baltimore, where the Prentissfamily makes its home, and onwards to the drawingrooms of high-society Richmond and the battle-fields where North and South collide.
With a diligent handling of the primary sources anda creative approach, David Jones has crafted a
fine story of Maryland brothers who are Civil Warsoldiers, one in blue the other in gray.

I can recommend David H. Joness Two Brothersto readers new to Civil War fiction and to those for
whom the story of the warno matter how famil-iarbears repeating. Both groups will find profit inthe book, less for its portrait of Whitman than for its
attention to what the poet-nurse treasured aboveall else: the humanity that both shaped and cursed

ironies and introspections, always in motion andtrusting in loveeven when it remains out of reach.Two friends plan a visit to Nantucket, but find them-selves on a different island completely, where themen they have loved are lined up on the beach; agrieving mother and daughter encounter nakedstrangers in unexpected places en route to theDordogne River; a restless New York artist travels toMadrid to find a European lover, only to fall for an-other persnickety New Yorker. From the mysteriousisland in the Atlantic to the crowded highways ofLos Angeles and from the Charles Bridge in Pragueto the temples of Luxor and the remote regions ofthe Myanmar peninsula, the worlds invented here
