Summary

Andrew rounded the stand of small knobby pines and came face-to-face with two men dressed in blue and holding cocked pistols aimed at him. The year is 1865, and General Sherman’s army has marched into North Carolina and into 11-year-old Andrew’s life. The soldiers slaughter his hogs and take his wounded father prisoner.

The make-believe games of war with his friends and dreams of glory are over. He experiences the terrible injustice of war and greed. His attempts to rescue his father fail, and the same ruthless soldiers who burned his grandfather’s home capture him. Escape is impossible, and execution for spying is all but certain. His greatest regret is not freeing his father.

No boy should endure the terrible agony of war. Yet, man will wage war against man, and boys will experience all the inhumanity of war. Andrew’s War is an action-packed story of courage.
