THE RED AND THE GOLD - Part One

THE RED AND THE GOLD is an epic that spans twenty centuries, taking the reader from Hadrian's Wall in Roman Britain to the Halls of Justice in Chicago.  It is the story of four powerful families in England, how they came to power, how they merged during Elizabethan times and then tested the ties that bind just a generation later during the English Civil War.  Their victories and heartbreaks of the Reades, the Cornewalls, the Brocketts and the Hoos are laced with intrigue, murder, and more than one Royal Banquet - menus included.
