Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Important moments in history are often defined by major events. But sometimes the best way to learn about historical events is to learn about the kids who grew up during that time. This age-appropriate, non-fiction text presents facts about the Civil War through the story of a boy named John, whose life was greatly affected by the war's events. Readers will learn about Civil War-era clothes, schools, and the differences of life in the North and South. Primary sources, fact boxes. a glossary, and index provide further opportunities for learning.
Includes index.
