Opis

The Young Cadet brings to life the Union's final failed attempt to capture Tallahassee, making Florida's capital the only Confederate capital east of the Mississippi not to fall. The progress of the Battle of Natural Bridge is viewed alternately by sixteen year old Florida Military Institute Cadet, Eugene Murray and Private Joshua Jackson of the 2nd Regiment, U.S. Colored Troops, raising the suspense level. A touch of romance and clear explanations of military tactics and equipment make this book an excellent choice for young adults and history buffs of all ages.
