Retail: $19.99
196 pages. Soft cover.
April, 2008
Filled with stories that are both educational and enlightening, The Southern Cross recognizes the five virtues of the 19th-century Christian soldier. These are: Courage, Duty, Faith, Honor and Mercy.
Each of these positive character traits is illustrated by some of the most inspirational stories to come out of the War Between the States. Every devotion contains a relevant verse of Scripture, an associated quote and a short vignette on a related topic.
There are forty of these uplifting devotions, ten encouraging essays, a special sermon that was presented to the soldiers in the field and a short biographical tribute to six of the South’s most pious commanders. A bonus study-guide that will enable the user to read the Bible in one-year is also included.

Patriot Press novels wins another award
Patriot Press has announced that Shades of Gray: A Novel of the Civil War in Virginia, by Gettysburg author Jessica James, has won a gold medal for Best Regional Fiction in the Indie Book Awards contest and was a finalist in the Historical Fiction category. The book also garnered a silver medal for Best Regional Fiction in the 2008 Independent Publisher Book Awards.
“I am certainly honored that Shades of Gray is receiving such wonderful praise from the Civil War community,” James said, “and the awards are a wonderful bonus.”
Because of the quality and style of writing in Shades of Gray, James has been asked to review a spec script for a two-hour pilot of a Civil War movie.
“I was delighted when they asked me to review the screenplay and help with the dialogue,” James said. “I spent a lot of time reading nineteenth century literature in order to make the dialogue in my novel sound authentic and natural.”
Lauded for its ability to evoke intense emotion, Shades of Gray presents the passionate debate of The War Between the States in an epic tale of love and adventure. Bookpleasures.com says “[emotions] seem to transcend the pages to settle in the very marrow of the reader’s bones.”
Shades of Gray can be purchased at bookstores or from Internet book retailers like Amazon and Barnes and Noble. Signed copies can be purchased from James through her Web site www.jessicajamesbooks.com.

Publisher discounts book for American Civil War Birthday April 12
In recognition of April 12 being celebrated as the birthday of the American Civil War, Gettysburg publisher Patriot Press is discounting the price of their 2008 release Shades of Gray: A Novel of the Civil War in Virginia for one day only.
At 4:30 a.m. on April 12, Confederates under Gen. Pierre Beauregard opened fire with 50 cannons upon Fort Sumter in Charleston, S.C., marking the beginning of the bloody four-year war that claimed more than 600,000 lives.
“To mark that historic event and draw attention to the significance of that day, my publisher has agreed to offer a one-day discount of 25% off the purchase price plus free shipping at their Web site www.patriotpressbooks.com on April 12,” said author Jessica James. “I’m so pleased that those readers who have seen all the wonderful reviews will now have the chance to purchase it at a discounted price.”
The Civil War is the backdrop for the page-turning plot of Shades of Gray, which is gathering attention for its accurate portrayal of the conflict and its passionate description of the private lives of Virginians forever changed by war.
Hailed as a “sympathetic and loving portrait” by the Historical Novel Society, the novel has captured the attention of Civil War authors and historians, as well as avid romance readers. Bob O’Connor, award-winning author of “The Virginian Who Might Have Saved Lincoln,” calls “Shades of Gray” the most accurate account of the War Between the States he has ever read, describing it as “exciting, intense and romantic from start to finish.”
Shades of Gray (ISBN: 978-0-9796000-0-5) is available at www.patriotpressbooks.com, as well as Internet retailers and bookstores everywhere.
