A Cast of Unforgettable Characters

At the heart of "Battle of Seawall" is a diverse cast of characters whose lives are forever intertwined by the storm. There's Jake, a young engineer who has just moved to Galveston with his wife and baby daughter. Emily, a nurse, has come to the island to escape her past and start a new life. And Clara, a widowed mother of two, struggles to make ends meet while keeping her family safe.

As the hurricane approaches, each character must confront their own fears and make difficult choices. Jake must decide whether to evacuate his family or stay and help defend the city. Emily must overcome her trauma and find the strength to care for the injured. And Clara must put her own safety at risk to protect her children.

A Gripping Story of Survival

"Battle of Seawall" is not just a story about a hurricane. It is a story about the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity. As the storm rages, the characters are tested to their limits. They must overcome unimaginable obstacles, make life-or-death decisions, and find the strength to keep fighting when all hope seems lost.

Ebright's writing is both gripping and compassionate. He transports readers to the heart of the storm, allowing them to experience the terror and desperation of those who lived through it. But he also shows us the power of hope, love, and the human capacity for survival.

A Forgotten Chapter of American History

"Battle of Seawall" is more than just a gripping story. It is also an important work of historical fiction that sheds light on a forgotten chapter of American history. The 1900 Galveston hurricane was one of the deadliest natural disasters in U.S. history, and its impact on the city was profound.

Through his novel, Ebright helps us to understand the human toll of the storm and the heroism of those who fought to save Galveston. He reminds us that even in the darkest of times, hope and courage can prevail.
