Chris is a confederate through and through. He discovers that war is more than a battle of ideas when he reports a vanguard of Yankees moving through the woods near his Tennessee home and finds that his brother is part of the Yankee troop. In his attempt to warn his brother, Chris meets the dreaded Yankees soldiers and learns how much all men have in common. Published in 1958 a recommend JF classic.

This would be a good book for a combination lit/his unit if there were enough copies available.

This book is a great middle-grade "thinker". A young man has an eye opening experience during the civil war. This story was heart-warming.
