"Beyond Their Years--Stories of Sixteen Civil War Children" by Scotti Cohn

Beyond Their Years by Scotti Cohn is historical non-fiction. This is a collection of stories from 16 people who, during their childhood, the civil war was ongoing. They look back and tell how they dealt with it. This is a wide range of stories from men and women. Some from the north and some from the south. For the most part, they were interesting with some better than others. If you enjoy reading about history, this is the book for you!

Teaser from page 55:  Before the end of February, the blue-eyed, sandy-haired "little snotty boy" wore a dark blue uniform and carried a gun.  One of the other soldiers, a big husky fellow called "Curly," was not impressed with the newly created "Private Stockwell."
