Description
Book Two of the Twenty Lives at War Series: The American Civil War: 20 Short Stories of Courage, Rebellion, and Homefront Hope steps beyond battle maps to show how a fractured nation felt from the inside out. Across twenty stand-alone stories, the war unfolds through the eyes of people who rarely make the monuments: a Union farm boy shaking on his first night picket duty, a Confederate nurse in a makeshift church hospital, an enslaved father following rumors of the Union line, a newly freed woman searching for her sold-away children, a telegraph operator who knows the news before the generals, a border-state preacher whose congregation splits in two. From Antietam's smoke-choked fields to burned courthouses, prison camps, plantation yards, and lamplit kitchens where letters are opened with trembling hands, these voices reveal a conflict fought not just in charges and cannons, but in marriages, churches, friendships, and family tables. Read singly or together, these stories show a war that broke hearts and households-and the fragile, stubborn hope that tried to piece them back together.
