Preview: Hear it

Awardwinning author Rosemary Wells lays bare the senseless devastation of war in this stunning novel. As the Civil War breaks out, India, a young Southern girl, summons her sharp intelligence and the courage she didnt know she had to survive the war that threatens to destroy her family, her Virginia home, and the only life she has ever known. A timeless heroine of inspiring drive and bravery, India holds on to her dream of forging a career in science, unheardof for a woman, in the face of battle, starvation, and tragic loss. Rarely has the Southern perspective on the war been told so evenhandedly for young adults as in this meticulously researched, poignant, and riveting novel.
