In the early days of the American Civil War, Harry thought it was just a quarrel among politicians -- until his young son ran away to join a guerrilla raid against the Confederates. Within weeks, Harry himself was falsely accused of sabotage, tried in a rigged courtroom, and sentenced to hang for treason. Based on true events and the real life of Harrison Self, this is a tale of eastern Tennessee, where loyalty to the Union survived long after the state had seceded. At times evoking the diaries, humorous tales, and adventure narratives of the period, it is the story of a man for whom love of country was not a given, but the result of decisions forged under pressure. In the course of his war, he will lose a son, plumb a daughter's love, and form a strange bond with the region's most controversial figure, W. G. Brownlow. Unremarked by history, Harry experienced, firsthand, the serial betrayals and surprising loyalties of a bloody war on his doorstep. How he survived -- and what he became -- is a suspenseful and moving tale of a soul's reformation.

Bernardi's first effort, The Reluctant Patriot, is a richly woven history of a good people changed; a powerful cautionary story about the grand opera of politics where, throughout the ages, maestros are changed but the music remains the same ... always the same.Based upon his research of letters and extensive original conversations with family members and friends living in the United States and several small villages in the Italian Apennine Mountains, the author weaves a unique story of love, hope and patriotism of family members and friends who became casualties of Fascism, the German occupation, partisan raids and the reprisals carried out by both sides.
