Great Battles for Boys: The Civil War will capture the attention of even the most reluctant readers.
More than 600,000 Americans died in this war — more than all other American wars combined — but many people still don't understand the full scope of this deadly conflict.
"In many schools these days, students aren’t being taught about the individual battles and struggles of our nation’s history, including Gettysburg."
5 Star review Great Battles for Boys: The Civil War.
From the first shots at Fort Sumter to the South's surrender at Appomattox, young readers move chronologically through 20 crucial battles, covering all four years of the Civil War.
Boys will learn about the strategies, tactics, and weaponry and military leaders who won the battle's victory—or suffered defeat.
Battle of the Ironclads: One of America's deadliest naval battles, right off the coast of Virginia
Vicksburg: Ulysses S. Grant bombs, terrorizes, and starves this southern city into surrender.
Antietam: Robert E. Lee invades the North and pays a terrible price.
Petersburg: The North literally blows a hole in the South—and still loses the battle.
And much more!
