    Paperback (Zeezok Publishing, Dec. 4, 2009)
    Pinned down behind a rock by a Confederate sniper, Union Lieutenant Dick Mason unsuccessfully fires on his opponent. After a prolonged exchange of bullets, they come to a mutual, unspoken decision-to leave the protection of their natural fortresses and sprint back to their comrades. As they exit their shelter, Dick's heart skips a beat. He had been dueling with his cousin, Harry Kenton! In the split second before going their separate ways, they give each other a quick, respectful wave before rejoining their units. Throughout the Battles of Second Manassas and Antietam, Dick repeatedly finds himself coming face-to-face with family and friends fighting for the Confederacy. He even makes some enemy acquaintances while combing the battlefields for a fellow soldier who is missing. What a strange war! As Dick & Harry watch their regiments dwindle and the casualties mount, they yearn for the conflict to end so that they can be simply cousins and friends once again.

    Paperback (CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, May 29, 2014)
    The first youth rode to the crest of the hill, and, still sitting on his horse, examined the country in the south with minute care through a pair of powerful glasses. The other two dismounted and waited patiently. All three were thin and their faces were darkened by sun and wind. But they were strong alike of body and soul. Beneath the faded blue uniforms brave hearts beat and powerful muscles responded at once to every command of the will. "What do you see, Dick?" asked Warner, who leaned easily against his horse, with one arm over the pommel of his saddle. "Hills, valleys, mountains, the August heat shimmering over all, but no human being." "A fine country," said young Pennington, "and I like to look at it, but just now my Nebraska prairie would be better for us. We could at least see the advance of Stonewall Jackson before he was right on top of us."
