Book Synopsis
A novel which tracks the fortunes of Jason Auster and his unlikely bride, the aristocratic Sarah Parke, along with the children and wards, the lost loves and secret passions that define and forever alter an entire family and everyone who touches it. It illuminates the racial, sexual, and political conventions and conflicts of its time.

Trade Review
"Stoddard was an author ahead of her time; her portrayal of strong women seems almost anachronistic, her descriptive writing flows, and she conveys much of her characters' thoughts through dialog. Two Men is a remarkable tale."—Donna Bassett, Historical Novels Review
"Putzi offers a strong case for the continued examination of Stoddard's work and for the reexamination of her novels as squarely situated within the changing social, political, and literary landscape of the United States during and following the Civil War."—Bridgette Copeland, Legacy
