This is the 150 year old love story between my great-great-grandparents, Winston and Octavia (Bryant) Stephens, set against the backdrop of the St. Johns River in Florida and the Civil War. A love story told purely in their own words through their letters and diaries and the letters and diaries of eight other family members.
September 15, 1861. Stayed in our room all day excepting to go to meals after tea talked awhile with Winston’s friend Mr. Harris & Mr. Duval then went on the Darlington. Bella came soon after (from the other boat).
