BOOK: Retreat from Gettysburg by Ernst

[Frederick Muller <fmuller@TELLURIAN.NET>]

Ernst, Kathleen._ Retreat from Gettysburg._White Maine Kids,
2000 [1-57249-187-6]
It is a week after Gettysburg and the retreating Confederate Army
is trapped by the swelling river near Chigger's Maryland home.
Local families are forced to quarter and care for wounded soldiers.
Chigger hates having a Reb soldier in their house since his father
and his brothers have all been killed in the war.  Chigger must care
for his mother.  Should he kill or even refuse to help or talk to the
Reb soldier quartered in his house?  Should he join the Union army
and leave his troubled mother alone.  I enjoyed this 141 page book
which covers the aftermath of Gettysburg and the feelings of the
local Union families.
