This is a well-wrought novel, filled with suspense, pathos, and human drama. --Kathryn M. Lang, writer and editor Paints an engrossing, fact-based and frequently tense portrait of slavery and anti-slavery sentiments in North Texas in 1860. Silent We Stood provides a realistic and often tense look at how the Underground Railroad might have functioned in and just beyond Dallas County as the Civil War loomed. --Dallas Morning News Chappell is fully in command of the art of fiction. . . . I regard Silent We Stood as being among the finest Civil War novels I have ever read. --Civil War Book Review Filled with suspense and human drama, this novel could become a classic work of pre-Civil War America. Chappell is a superior writer of literature in his use of language, blending in historical characters with his fictional ones with great success. This novel has all the breathtaking cruelties and valor a lover of historical novels can hope for. Highly recommended. --Historical Novels Review
