Although For Maryland’s Honor is a novel, the scholarly research and attention to detail is evident throughout the book.  Included are details about Lt. Col. Bradley T. Johnson and his wife, known affectionately by the soldiers as Mrs. Capt. Bradley, who together were successful in recruiting and equipping Marylanders into Confederate  service under the Maryland banner.  This historical novel is a must read for those who seek to feel what it meant to be a citizen of Maryland during the Civil War.  
 
Starting with the political fervor surrounding Maryland in October 1850, it carries the reader through the Baltimore riots and most of the Civil War.  In For Maryland’s Honor, the woman’s perspective of the “War for Southern Independence” on the home front is eloquently portrayed by the feisty Miss Marion Palmer who provides both the love interest and conflict…as her loyalty is to the North.  
 
The author was the son of a Maryland Confederate veteran and well-known lecturer and writer on Confederate history.  Mr. Everett also co-edited the re-publication of R.G. Horton’s, A Youth’s History of the Civil War.
