The American Civil War is finally over, but the turmoil of a nation embroiled in a passionate struggle for civil rights has only just begun. Oaklayne Plantation is in ruins, a stark reflection of the condition of a once prosperous country and her families who have been torn apart by war. Was anything gained by the deaths of so many Americans? Is all hope for restoration gone? The Reconstruction Era is an often overlooked, but politically charged time in American history. Oaklayne, The Reconstruction presents an engaging mix of heart-rending tragedy, sabotage, murder, corruption, and intrigue, together with humor, romance, joy, faith, hope, and love. Come along with General Adam Layne as he walks the tumultuous road toward rebuilding his live, his family, his childhood home, and his country in this historically accurate portrayal of a man who refuses to accept meaningless loss.

Great storytelling! Interesting history.

Exciting, interesting, funny, romantic, tragic, intense, tender, sad, joyous, comical, a range of emotional reactions while learning about an often overlooked period of American history. Perfect ending for the series.
