1861: As America erupts into civil battle, Emma Edmonds is roused to such strong patriotism that she joins the Union military...as a man. Raised on the farm by way of a father who would have preferred a kid, Emma can trip, throw, and hunt as well as any man. She defies convention to become a soldier, an military nurse, a good spy. Dangers encompass her, from enemy fire in challenge to the chance of finding by her friends, which would result in court-martial and disgrace. Always she looks for to reconcile the necessity of deception with her deeply performed beliefs, but her best challenge comes up when her companionship with a fellow-soldier becomes so close that she is tempted to confess the truth and risk everything for the opportunity at love. Predicated on the true activities of Sarah Emma Edmonds, who offered for just two years in the next Michigan Volunteers as Private Frank Thompson.
