Banners at Shenandoah
Bruce Catton
Paperback
(Bantam Books, Jan. 1, 1965)
The rousing, action-packed novel of the boy who fought at General Sheridan's side through some of the bloodiest battles of the Civil War. This book is not a panoramic historical novel in the tradition of War and Peace or Gone with the Wind. The author's aim was to portray for today's youth how the war might have seemed to them had they lived a century ago.
