The radical and Constitution-defying measures of the President have forced those who would defend liberty to resort to extreme measures. Now there are two governments of the United one which controls Washington, DC and most of the coasts and another, this one based out of Colorado, that controls much of what lies between.
Blood has already been shed. The President in Washington, Kevin Bryan, tried to crush the Rebels by importing tens of thousands of foreign soldiers and throwing them westwards in an all-out effort to end the rebellion at a blow. Instead, the government in Colorado, under the command of the former Speaker of the House, managed to throw back the forces of the government after a pitched battle that raged across Kansas and Colorado before ending at Pueblo.
Continuing the story of the Second Civil War, as begun in “A House Divided” and extended in “The Fiery Trial”, “Shall Not Perish” tells an all-too-plausible story of a desperate struggle for liberty waged by those people, both ordinary and extraordinary, who are willing to give all to defend freedom.
