Dear Librarians,

Captain Frank Dawson was an English journalist; Sarah Morgan, the beautiful daughter of a Baton Rouge judge. After the Civil War they married in Charleston, SC, where at first they flourished: he as an influential editor, she a writer and mother. Later his views on race were considered too progressive then his household was fatally disrupted by a sinister neighbor. This is the story of a literary romance, a true crime, racial politics, and the real history of my great-grandparents.  

DAWSON'S FALL has been praised by The New York Times, The Washington Post and The New Yorker as well as by Josephine Humphreys, Amy Bloom, Lee Smith and Frances FitzGerald.  

Best, 
Roxana Robinson, author of Cost and Sparta
