Description
Preface: an Introduction to The Sisters of Southgate

There are many stories like this one in the world, that tell the tale of the War of the Princes. Some of them are about the sad Prince Michael, some of them are about the proud Prince Logah; others tell the story from a different side, like Paul Rutherford, who was a friend of both princes, or Sir Harry Tanner, who was a knight that fought in the war. And even though most of these stories are true, they usually ignore one very important truth: that all of these men, and all of these stories, are tied together by two very important women: Theresa Everett and Abigail Quincey.

Historians--people who study the past--call these women the "Sisters of Southgate," although they weren't sisters like we know today. They didn't have the same parents, and in fact, they didn't even grow up in the same town! But they were very much like sisters, because they loved each other very much, and they believed in the same things, like honesty, and love, and always doing the right thing.

Of course, there are people who know the stories of the Sisters of Southgate--if there weren't, this book wouldn't exist! But their story isn't told as often as Michael's, or Logan's, or Harry or Paul's, because people like stories about heroes, and most people don't think that Theresa or Abigail were as "heroic" as those men. But, as this book will show, a woman doesn't need to pick up a sword and fight in large battles to be a hero--she simply needs to believe in herself and do the right thing.
