Order it here

It's here.....the conclusion of the popular family saga of the Ownby family and their struggle for survival during the Civil War.

"Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness." 2 Peter 3:13
A family is like A Twist of Tobacco, layered, folded and twisted until each leaf becomes inseparable.

Based on family stories and traditions and backed by years of research.
