Leaving Virgina

Leaving Virginia is a work of historical fiction following a Virginia family as they leave behind the familiar world of home, family, and community in search of a new beginning in Texas during the 1850s. Their journey west brings opportunity, hardship, uncertainty, and the challenge of building a new life on the American frontier. Set against a nation moving toward Civil War, Leaving Virginia is ultimately a story about family, faith, courage, and discovering that home is more than a place.
