It is 1932, and racial prejudice is common in Deer Point, Arkansas, where the lives of two women-a white school teacher and an African American sharecropper-are destined to become forever entwined. As Allise DeWitt gives birth to her first child, her husband, Quent, rapes eighteen-year-old African American Maizee Colson on their cotton farm. Fearing that Quent will terrorize her forever, Maizee's parents take her to Texas, where, nine months later, she gives birth to a son whom she names Nathaniel. As Allise and Quent settle into life as new parents, she cannot shake the feeling that something is wedging its way between them. Financial troubles brought on by the Great Depression plague Quent, and he is forced to send his farmhands packing. Driven by the need to help and to do the right thing, Allise heads up a church project to donate clothing and other items to the sharecroppers. Years later, Quent is killed while fighting in World War ll, and Allise finds happiness in a second marriage to Dro McClure. Allise's charitable journey continues, however, leading her through peril and prejudice and eventually bringing her to uncover a shocking truth that will change her life forever. In this historical novel, an independent Quaker school marm attempts to overcome racial inequity in her small community, inextricably intertwining her life with an unlikely friend who proves that peace is attainable even in the darkest of times.

Still incensed over the politicians' failure to develop a winning strategy for Vietnam, veteran James Benton Stark retires from the Defense Intelligence Agency at the Pentagon to his quiet farm in central Virginia. But Stark's ire only increases when an immensely popular U.S. president escapes implication with a recently revealed scheme to accept campaign contributions from Chinese intelligence agents in exchange for foreign policy considerations. In response, Stark joins a fiercely patriotic group known as the Virginia Militia led by billionaire Claiborne Randolph. At first Stark thinks all he'll do is drink a lot of Randolph's bourbon and complain about the government. But when a beautiful Chinese Army defector and her Russian case officer begin to unravel the conspiracy, Stark becomes embroiled in a magnificent plot to restore the true meaning of the Constitution of the United States. The unthinkable happens when Communist China threatens the United States with nuclear holocaust. The nation is near panic, and the U.S. military is under total mobilization. But the Virginia militia knows who is behind the scheme. And this time, mindful of the failures of the Korean War, Vietnam, and the first Gulf War, Stark won't lose.

This book reflects on the life of a southern gentleman, his growing up years in Valdosta, Georgia through the days of owning a pharmacy in Griffin, Georgia. He recalls good times and bad, stories depicting honest struggles with the tenets of his heritage during the early days of integration. He knew that changes were being made and that all change must start from within. Anecdotes explain how this came about in his life. The racial issue continues to be one of immense importance. Change was needed and granted, but the South had a hard time giving up their beliefs, traditions, customs and prejudices. Transformation occurred quickly as the government implemented the law, and blacks demanded immediate recognition. The children of today aren’t taught southern American history. They have no idea what really transpired during this era. The author invites change through the message in Southern Winds. The book encourages all races to ignore color and strive for unity, love and compassion between each other. The moral message is to judge people by their character and personality, not by the color of their skin.
