Inspired by actual events, Leaves Torn Asunder chronicles the turmoil in a small mountain settlement during the American Civil War. When the war began most thought it would be over in a matter of months and young farm boys didn’t want to miss out on the fun. The war lasted four long tragic years and, to this day, is known for its horrific carnage. Back home, mothers and fathers, and in some cases wives with young children, worried and waited each day for another letter or news of their men at war. And how were they going to manage the endless chores on the farm without their help? By war’s end, the courage of the families back home often equaled the bravery of the men fighting for their lives on the battlefield.
