Tillie Pierce: teen eyewitness to the Battle of Gettysburg by Tanya Anderson

Obviously I have not read ANY books for months.  I guess my relationship with them as been in the form of ordering and processing for this new school.  Things are starting to pull together, and we just got our new order - so I just couldn't resist some of the new ones.  This is a very quick read (only 85 pages) but very interesting.  I love anything about the Civil War, especially biographical info, so this was very interesting.  Tillie thought she was going away from the battle fray, the day she went with her neighbor and her 2 young daughters.  However, she ended up at the Weichert farm which sat at the base of both Little and Big Roundtop, in the heart of the battle.  She had some amazing experiences and reported them well.  If you like history, this is great.
