Description
In the spring of 1863, a thirteen-year-old boy leaves his home on a farm in northern Tennessee with his father, who has joined the Confederate army. The boy will ride with him to care for the horses and help with camp duties. A moving personal narrative in the form of a journal, this powerful poem tells the story of one boy's journey into war - and the horrible climax at Gettysburg. Illustrated with striking black and white woodcuts, this is a vivid, lyrical, and intensely human document of the terrible personal cost of the Civil War.
