Junior Thompson, boy of an freed slave, and Webbie Henderson, boy of a wealthy family, mix a forbidden boundary between their properties and forge an unlikely companionship in the years that culminate in the Civil Conflict. Young as they are, both must end up being the men of their families when their fathers are called to battle. When the conflict comes to their hometown of Carlisle and nearby Gettysburg, will they endure? A historically real, fast-paced, multicultural family saga, Soldier's Heart occurs on the 15-12 months period, culminating on April 9, 1865: Junior Thompson's 12th birthday, as well as the day General Lee will surrender, formally stopping the Civil Conflict. Though the victory of the conflict may be at hand, this unforgettable report reveals how the private battles of the center rage on. Soldier's Heart is encouraged by the untold true report of the Thompsons, a dark-colored family, and the Hendersons, a white family, who lived as neighborhood friends in Carlisle, PA. The author is their immediate descendant.
