Su questo libro

Dal risvolto di copertina interno

Little Confederates enter a world where the Rebel Yell and Robert E. Lee still live. This illustrated alphabet book takes young readers back to the Civil War, with rhymed stanzas providing brief overviews of major people, places, and events in Confederate military history.

From M is for Manassas and S is for Stonewall Jackson to C is for cavalrymen and Y is for Yankees, children will learn all about the war. Military terms such as infantry and Mini� balls along with nurses and flags present a broad view of fighting for the Confederacy.

Additional features include the lyrics to the songs "Dixie" and "Goober Peas" and a quiz about the parts of the Confederate uniform. This entertaining supplemental material creates a fun history lesson for those beginning to learn about the War Between the States.

Rickey E. Pittman is a Civil War reenactor, public speaker on issues and topics related to the War Between the States, and musician who travels and performs original and Civil War-period music. His goal is to provide reading audiences with an "accurate book written from a Southern perspective" instead of "the politically driven and often historically inaccurate materials currently available on the Civil War." Pittman is the author of Jim Limber Davis: A Black Orphan in the Confederate White House, Stonewall Jackson's Black Sunday School, Stories of the Confederate South, Scottish Alphabet, and Irish Alphabet, all published by Pelican.

Stephanie Ford has been involved in Civil War reenactments since she was a teenager. A high-school art teacher, she is a member of the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators and the Twelfth Texas Artillery: Val Verde Battery. She lives with her husband and daughter on a farm in Texas.
