Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
The period of time including the Civil War and Reconstruction in the United States was an era that involved a lot of change. For many African Americans, this transition included going from a life of slavery to becoming a soldier. This engaging and informative book presents readers with the stories of many of these people, while also addressing important issues such as racism and prejudice. Detailed text paired with eye-catching photographs helps support key social studies curriculum and hold the attention of readers.
Includes bibliographical references (page 31) and index.
