Tales of the Martin Clan Jon F Rice

This book is a collection of four short stories, set in a researched historical setting, or historical fiction. However that history has, perhaps, a non-traditional focus. The stories reside in the path of America's color-line as it sways, pitches and rolls, drunkenly through the American past. The characters are not circumspect about their color, nor do they transcend it, entirely. While the stories focus on one family's journey through time, their story also implies alternative perceptions of America than the current histories. It is the author's hope that you will enjoy the stories in the own light, but dare to look beyond them at the vision of the future from a redemptive past.
