After reading, 'The Road South', and experiencing the sudden death of the head of the DeWeese family, many readers expressed the desire to know the continuing story of the Children of that Family. 'A New Generation', the second book of historical fiction from the pen of Nannie Maude Reynolds is the result of that desire. ’A New Generation’ carries the DeWeese family into a new relationship and a new age.
