Excerpt from A Lincoln Conscript
1863 the Civil War in America was at its height. Late in the preceding month Lee had turned his face northward, and, with an army of a hundred thousand Con federate soldiers at his back, had marched up into Pennsylvania. There was little to hinder his advance. Refraining, by reason of strict orders, from wanton destruction of property, his soldiers nevertheless lived on the rich country through which they passed. York and Carlisle were in their grasp. Harrisburg was but a day's march away, and now, on this second day of July, flushed with fresh victories, they had turned and were giving desperate battle, through the streets and on the hills of.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book transports readers back to Americaâs Civil War during a period of intense social and political division. After Union forces under General Meade halted General Leeâs troops at Gettysburg, the nation was left in suspense over the outcome of the battle and the fate of the troops engaged. This book captures the anxieties and emotions of a small Pennsylvania town as its people await news of loved ones on the front lines. It explores the hostility and ostracism faced by the bookâs protagonist, Rhett Bannister, who publicly criticizes President Lincoln's leadership. Bannister, a vocal opponent of the war, finds himself denounced as a traitor and subjected to a mock trial by his neighbors. Through Bannisterâs story, the author explores the profound impact of political divides on communities, the courage of those who dissent, and the search for common ground amidst chaos.
