Lochlainn Seabrook's powerful, transformative screenplay A Rebel Born follows Southern icon Nathan Bedford Forrest from young adulthood to the closing years of his amazing action-packed life. Both entertaining and historically accurate, this sweeping Southern-oriented drama offers the reader a rare opportunity to see the War for Southern Independence (known to Yankees as the American Civil War) from the viewpoint of the Conservative South, and on a more personal level, through the eyes of a patriotic American, celebrated Tennessean, and brilliant Confederate general.
As this important biographical film unfolds, the screenwriter - also an award-winning Forrest scholar - overturns many of the myths and lies fabricated by enemies of the South to conceal the truth about both "Old Bedford" and the War. Written for the general public, this work, based on his bestselling Forrest biography of the same name, is being hailed as the most honest, factual, and provocative screenplay ever penned about the War Between the States. Available in paperback and hardcover.
