About the Book

While most stories of the American Civil War focus on the great battles in the East, such as Gettysburg and Antietam-the war spanned the entire continent. Some of its most interesting and compelling events occurred in the West, where the drama of the war was set against the backdrop of encroaching "civilization" and the path toward statehood for the Western territories. The Deserving tells the story of the war in the West through the eyes of two soldiers on opposites sides and a young woman who is loved by one and hunted by the other.

E'mile Deschampes is just eighteen when he joins the Union army, enlisting as a scout. He is badly wounded during his unit's first engagement with the Confederate Arizona Brigade, under the command of Confederate General Henry Hopkins Sibley.

Deschampes is rescued from the battlefield of Valverde Ford and his life is saved by Carmen Reyes, a young lady from a nearby village. Deschampes and the young lady narrowly escape death again - this time in the person of a cold-blooded Confederate Lieutenant, Aubrey McGrath. When the Confederates are driven out of the New Mexico Territory and war ends, Deschampes is left in possession of a cryptic document that may lead him to buried treasure. As luck would have it however, Deschampes meets up with his former enemy years after the war in Santa Fe. Past wounds are reopened from a War that has not yet faded from the memory of either man. Destiny leads to one final battle between the two - to resolve their conflicts and possibly create a future free from the oppressive beliefs of yesteryear. .
