Over 20 years later, it stands as an essential, modern classic.</b></p> <p></p> <p>Charles Frazier's debut novel <i>Cold Mountain</i> made publishing history in 1997 when it stood at the top of the <i>New York Times</i> best-seller list for sixty-one weeks, won numerous literary awards, including the National Book Award, and went on to sell over three million copies.
