Soldier's Heart: Being the Story of the Enlistment and Due Service of the Boy Charley Goddard in the First Minnesota Volunteers
ISBN: 9780440228387 / Angielski / Miękka (mass market paperbound / 2000 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In June 1861, when the Civil War began, Charley Goddard enlisted in the First Minnesota Volunteers. He was 15. He didn't know what a "shooting war" meant or what he was fighting for. But he didn't want to miss out on a great adventure.

When he came back he was different; he was only 19, but he was a man with "soldier's heart," later known as "battle fatigue."
