Sinopse

Gustave Aimard's 'The Rebel Chief: A Tale of Guerilla Life' is a gripping novel that delves into the chaotic and dangerous world of guerilla warfare. Set against the backdrop of the Mexican Revolution, Aimard's literary style captures the tension and adrenaline of battle, with vivid descriptions of the rugged landscapes and brutal skirmishes. The book explores themes of loyalty, betrayal, and the struggle for freedom, making it a compelling read for those interested in historical fiction and adventure stories. Aimard's attention to detail and his skillful storytelling transport the reader to a time and place filled with intrigue and danger. As a former soldier and adventurer himself, Gustave Aimard draws from his own experiences and knowledge of military tactics to bring authenticity to 'The Rebel Chief'. His firsthand encounters with guerilla fighters and his deep understanding of the political climate of the time shine through in the novel, adding depth and credibility to the narrative. Aimard's unique perspective as both a participant and observer of such conflicts lends a sense of authority to his storytelling. I highly recommend 'The Rebel Chief: A Tale of Guerilla Life' to readers who enjoy action-packed historical fiction with a strong emphasis on realism. Gustave Aimard's masterful depiction of guerilla warfare and his ability to create compelling characters make this novel a must-read for anyone seeking excitement and adventure within a rich historical context.

    Tressa Harlowe's father did not trust banks, but neither did he trust his greedy extended family. He kept his vast fortune hidden somewhere on his estate in the south of England and died suddenly, without telling anyone where he had concealed it. Tressa and her ailing mother are left with a mansion and an immense vineyard and no money to run it. It doesn't take long for a bevy of opportunists to flock to the estate under the guise of offering condolences. Tressa knows what they're really up to. She'll have to work with the rough and rusticated vineyard manager to keep the laborers content without pay and discover the key to finding her father's fortune--before someone else finds it first. Award-winning author Joanna Davidson Politano welcomes readers to Trevelyan Castle, home of the poorest heiress in Victorian England, for a treasure hunt they'll not soon forget.
