Before 12 YEARS A SLAVE, there was BROTHERS OF A STORM. From the Amistad rebellion to the Emancipation Proclamation, Black American history comes alive in Pulitzer nominated author David W. Menefee's unforgettable masterpiece that people will talk about as long as books live. The story follows Matthew and Mark, brothers of the storm of war, who are twin orphans torn apart and forced to live distant, separate lives. One boy's hopes are shattered, his brother's dream becomes a nightmare, and a war ignites the fuse for an explosive adventure. Their lives celebrate the power of the human spirit to do what is right no matter what the cost, and their wills to reunite plunge them on a twisting trail to freedom in a world gone mad.
