This is a 1958 Newbery Award-winning book. I first read it almost 60 years ago. The daily camp life and battles helped me visualize the highs, lows, and horrors of war.

The author interviewed Civil War veterans, so I feel the story gave an accurate accounting of the war. This is a must-read for history buffs.
