|
"Jeff Bussey is sixteen when the Civil War begins. He can’t wait to leave his Kansas farm and defend the Union cause against the dread Stand Watie, leader of the Cherokee Indian rebels. As an infantry soldier, Jeff must march for miles, exhausted and near starvation. He must watch friends die in battle and know that every step he takes may be his last. Then he is sent to spy behind enemy lines. If he’s caught, he’ll be shot. But the worst danger of all is his discovery that the rebels - even Watie - are men he can like and admire.
