"THE WHITE ROSE" - A FREE INTERNET NOVEL BY RON BARBOUR


Ron Barbour is the "Ronbo" often mentioned in this blog as publisher of The Freedom Fighter's Journal.  Here are excerpts from early chapters of his internet novel, The White Rose.
This chapter is titled:  "The Star of David".

"With its pristine appearance, the white rose has come to symbolize purity, innocence and secrecy. There are myths and legends from several different cultures relating to the origin of the first rose which is initially white in color and is then miraculously transformed. Oftentimes the pure white rose was depicted as being stained by blood, or made to blush from a kiss. The recurrence of this theme does a great deal to establish the white rose as a symbol for purity."
The main protagonists are David Hunter, Bobby Pelton, Mr. Big (Mark Alexander) and General Conway.
The character of David Hunter is a latter day Sam Adams - Father of the Revolution.
Bobby Pelton represents the American sense of adventure and fearless unconventional thinking.
Mark Alexander, a billionaire, bankrolls the revolution.
General Conway, the head of the U.S. military, would correspond to George Washington.
....
...."We modern day White Rose Americans are not so idealistic to believe that public opinion alone can change things in this country. This is the reason I gave your JDL group the means of self defense against tyranny."

Thanks for the Promo!

This is a work in progress...so much so that even I do not know exactly what will happen next...I have a plan for the novel, but a novel plan only lasts until the first shot is written...
