Product Description

Few writers have earned a place in readers' hearts as dear as Eugenie Price. Her novels entice us into a vanished world, peopled by characters who immediacy makes their joy, sorrow, heartbreak, and soaring love something we can share and savor. Eugenia Price chose Savannah, Georgia as one of the most fascinating cities of the South, as the setting of a quartet of novels that follow the fortunes of the city and families that gave it life.

Orphaned Mark Browning was only twenty when he renounced his father's fortune and sailed to Savannah, his mother's birthplace...and the home of two remarkable women. The first is Eliza McQueen Mackay, his mentor's beautiful wife, whom Mark loves with a deep, pure love that can never be spoken. The other is lovely young Caroline Cameron, whose life is blighted by a secret that has tormented her grandparents for half a century--a secret that affects Mark more closely than he imagines. Desiring one woman, loved by another Mark must confront the ghosts of a previous generation, and face the evil smoldering hate, before he can truly call Savannah his home.

Savannah Quartet
I only recently "discovered" Eugenia Price, during a visit to
St. Simons Island, Georgia. I purchased her novel "The Lighthouse" as a souvenir, and became captivated. I have read the entire Savannah Quartet this year, and I highly recommend it. Her ability to weave history with fiction is remarkable. I found myself becoming very involved in the lives of Mark Browning, the McKays and all the other characters (some who lived and some who were "created") in this marvelous series. When I cry for the death of someone, they have become my friend. And so it is with the characters in the four marvelous books, beginning with "Savannah". Their lives, their faith and the history that participated in are captivating.

Enjoying Miss Eliza, yet again.
I just completed reading Savannah, for the second time. I read it many years ago and loved it then. Recently I was reading Stranger in Savannah and felt I had to go buy Savannah so I could see Mark as a young man again. I find Ms. Price's historical novels educational and entertaining. Savannah, as the Saint Simon's Trilogys, make the reader anxious for the next book about the Mackay and Browning families. The book is well written,historically accurate, and a great read. As with every Price book I've read,I wanted another to read,right away!

Eugenia Price continues to showcase her knowledge of Georgia
While "Savannah" is an excellent book, Eugenia Prices' writing history of Coastal Georgia started long before now. Might I reccomend her St. Simons Trilogy..."Lighthouse", "New Moon Rising" and "Beloved Invader" If you enjoyed "Savannah", you'll become totally engrossed in this trilogy. I heartedly reccomend anything by Eugenia Price.
