About the Book:
It is late summer 1862 and the Confederacy is at last invading the United States of America. Nathaniel Starbuck, the northern preacher’s son who fights for the rebel South, is given command of a punishment battalion, a despised unit of shirkers and cowards. His enemies expect the appointment to be his downfall. To prove them wrong, Starbuck must lead the ramshackle unit against the northern garrison at Harper’s Ferry and then across the frontier to the bank of the Antietam Creek. There he will fight in what will prove to be the bloodiest battle of the Civil War
