Cold Mountain is a novel about a soldiers perilous journey back to his beloved near the Civil War's end. At once a love story & a harrowing account of one mans long walk home, Cold Mountain introduces a new talent in American literature.
Based on local history & family stories passed down by Fraziers great-great-grandfather, Cold Mountain is the tale of a wounded Confederate soldier, Inman, who walks away from the ravages of the war & back home to his prewar sweetheart, Ada. His odyssey through the devastated landscape of the soon-to-be-defeated South interweaves with Adas struggle to revive her fathers farm, with the help of an intrepid young drifter named Ruby. As their long-separated lives begin to converge at the close of the war, Inman & Ada confront the vastly transformed world theyve been delivered.
