Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 In 1899, Charlie Ebersole arrived in the Philippines aboard the hospital ship USS Missouri. He was a young American medic, and he volunteered in a spirit of high adventure. But the war changed him, and he soon lost his illusions of glory and high adventure.

#2 Charlie Ebersole, after serving in the Philippines, bought a plantation in Isabela Province. He was able to save money, and in 1907, he bought a plantation along the Calao River in Santiago.

#3 Charlie began growing tobacco on his plantation, and soon began exporting it to the United States. He built a house at the edge of the river, and his family grew as four children were born to him and his wife, Maria.

#4 When they returned to the plantation, Maria was furious. She accused her daughter of seducing her husband. With the same cold-blooded attitude that had empowered him to steal Maria from her husband, Charlie gave her an ultimatum: accept his decision or be cast out.
