Together with their trusted canine advisor, General Sherman, and glory-seeking pet rat, Manassas, they set out to join the re-enactment, only to find themselves cast back in time to the actual battle itself – a dangerous place to be even for the Gooch brothers.To get back home, they’ll have to fend off attacks by confederate snipers and union cavalry, endure a rendezvous with destiny in the guise of a strange girl who may be more than she seems, and locate a magical glass eye that once belonged to the ancient Roman slaying general, Hannibal Barca.
