Check out the full review at Kritters Ramblings . . .

Another historical fiction, but this one during the civil war and from the beginning, I was hooked! Newly married Rosetta can't stand to stay in a house on her in-laws property, so she decides to join her husband in the war.

Rosetta was a fantastic character. She was likeable and it was easy to cheer her on in her endeavors, and maybe cringe too! Even though this story is told from a woman's perspective I still felt the grittiness of war and it didn't lack the real truths of what life was like on the front lines.
