"Rocky Water" is the story of two men drawn together by their opposition to secession and the Civil War. One man, James Croswell immigrates to America from Liverpool, England, with his wife, and establishes a successful life in New Orleans. As the prospects of war increase, they give it all up to flee to a more-peaceful place. They travel with their two daughters to the unspoiled east coast of central Florida, settling in Eau Gallie, which loosely translated from the French means "Rocky Water". The other, William Chesterfield, leaves the family farm in Kingsport, Tennessee after the death of his two brothers. He joins the Confederate army. His brilliant military career ends with his capture by Union forces. A daring escape leads him to Florida and a new life in a tiny settlement called Eau Gallie. The two men never heard of Eau Gallie, Florida, and at the beginning of their mutual migration were unaware of the significance this obscure settlement would play in their lives. This is the story of how their lives were forever changed.

Mr. Rau wrote an excellent story of a family that escaped the potential of business ruin in New Orleans at the outbreak of the civil war and moved to central Florida to start pretty much from scratch. The story is filled with civil war stories, farming stories, post civil war animosities, and a family's efforts to establish themselves in the Eau Gallie area of Florida. It includes a touching love story. The family's growth in farming and retail business is central to all the characters. Lots of action. A fun, fast read.Product details

A great read. Lots of local, interesting historical details. Great story line.
Great read - cover to cover! Hope to see more from this author.
Had a lot of good facts I didn't know about the area. First time author did a great job. Could have used a little more spice.
