John Jakes brings us his sixteenth consecutive New York Times bestseller-an acclaimed saga of two nation-shaping wars as seen by a powerful South Carolina dynasty.

Charleston follows the lives, loves and shifting fortunes of the unforgettable Bell family from the American Revolution through the turbulent antebellum years to the savage defeat of the Confederacy-and represents America's premier storyteller at his very best.

"A great read...a family intrigue that stretches across sweeping historical events." -Charleston Post and Courier
