The Brothers' War ~ Civil War Voices In Verse


By: J Patrick Lewis ~ A National Geographic & Photographs by: Matthew Brady, 31 pp


Civil War was an awful experience that our forefathers have had to endure. The stories we hear are sad and gruesome. This book is no different. However, the book is of stories put into "verse" poetry. The phographs are a bit much, but it is truth. There is a variety of poetry; such as a letter from a father to his son at war and then a return letter from the son back to his father - both in poetry.

Interestingly, there is a timeline and a map of the Civil War giving us more information.

This is a poetry & a Big Read book.
