This book looks at the ordinary people who fought the war and the people they left behind. It is about Belle Starr and Johnny Clem, one of the South’s top female spies, the other a nine-year-old drummer boy who went on to serve 46 years in the U.S. Army. It is about the first shot fired at Fort Sumter and the final lowering of the Confederate flag. It is about death on the battlefields and in prison cells, about women fighting to be recognized for their accomplishments, and how people on both sides managed to survive the deadliest war this nation has seen.
