Absolutely wonderful read. Ever so worth each moment spent with these pages. Story well written and very engageing.It is suspense and thrilling and sad and love. It will show you what you could do if you put your mind to something. This story is about survival and living during a dangerous time and making it. But never knowing if making it would ever happen till it finally did. This is a beautiful story.

If you are familiar with locales in St Louis and southeast Mo then you will recognize many of the Locations,ie. Irish Wilderness or Doniphan and Van Buren.
For me, a whole new look at the problems of the "little citizens" during the Civil War. Recommend!!

Very interesting historical fiction about Civil War in Missouri, from the viewpoint of a young girl who suffers from all sides during the war and is imprisoned for no reason.
