In his ambitious and rewarding novel, Jimmy Carter brings to life the Revolutionary War as it was fought in the Deep South. Much of the fight for independence took place in the South — a struggle of both great and small battles of terrible brutality, with neighbor turned against neighbor, the Indians' support sought by both sides, and no compassion asked or given. The Hornet's Nest follows a cast of characters and their loved ones on both sides of this violent conflict.
