Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. Deep within the forests on the border of a deserted estate belonging to a wealthy secessionist, Federal pickets make themselves at home surrounded by the desolate evidences of war. Yet in this place of conflict and desolation, both sides share common ground - the intense desire to communicate with home and loved ones. Letters are written and entrusted to the dangerous journeys of a few brave soldiers. This book follows the stories of three such messengers and the families on both sides whose lives they touch. Their efforts to cross the lines reveal moving personal stories of bravery, survival, and the resilience of the human spirit.
