Civil War re-enactors trying to relive the past call up things they have no concept about and are in a serious fix when things get out of their control. The main characters, past and present, are depicted each in their own chapter and the story switches back and forth in time from the present day to the Civil War days in the mountains of North Carolina and Tennessee.

An intriquing and entertaining tale told in present time by "Rattler" a Cherokee descendant with the gift of sight while in the Civil War days, the story is told from the point of view of the main characters.

A good read especially if you like ghost stories but, this one is based on real facts. Light romance, no sex and not heavy on the gory details.

One of Sharyn McCrumb's best, it weaves a story of the past in with current Civil War battle re-enactors. Very absorbing.

I loved this book. It gives a very different view of the Civil War, how it affected certain southerners...namely North Carolinians. Shows a way of thinking not usual in Civil War novels. It somewhat reminds me of Cold Mountain, although the story is so very different. And, like many of McCrumb's books, this is loosely based on fact.

Sharyn McCrumb's stories, but just couldn't seem to get into this one. It was just too slow for me. I picked it up more than once & finally decided not to keep on plodding through it.

For Civil War buffs this book is a treasure. The plot, the writing style--fascinating!!

Excellent choice for Civil War buffs. Very well written. AAA+++

This is the first book of hers that I haven't cared for. A little too slow going. However, she did a great deal of research, and others will probably like it a lot.

Civil War reenactors have gathered in the Appalachian Mountains to stage the lesser-know skirmishes of the conflict. Jouning them is a part-Cherokee mountain man Rattler. He is gifted with the ability to see spirts--and cursed with the knowledge that the players are conjuring up the restless souls of the actual soldiers who fought and died during the war...

I'm a big Sharyn McCrumb fan. This pariticular book is somewhat different than her usual writings but still a a very good read.
