Dust, Wind and Dreams — Peter M. Wright

Dust, Wind and Dreams takes the reader to those often sublime locals, thoughts, and emotions sometimes left unvisited. Visit Paris, France on a rainy night; learn about the burning of Jack London's Wolf House; stumble too near the abyss of an abandoned vertical mine-shaft as Jasmine Daltri tries to escape her abductor; read poignant letters home written by lonely Civil War soldiers; walk the former World War One battlefields of The Western Front; read a letter to Sheila from her lonely ex-husband; visit Savannah Johnston as she discovers a wounded Civil War soldier hiding in her barn; learn about Battis Johnston, the last slave; and read how a young boy says goodbye to his brother Bobby, killed in a useless war.
