Solider's Heart by Gary Paulsen

Soldier's Heart is a story based upon the life of a 16 year old boy named Charley. Charley is living with his family in Minnesota during the Civil War. Even though Charley is under the age of what you're supposed to bo to enter the army, he lies anyway and they let him pass. He goes through months of training before he is sent on a train down south to fight. During the Battle of Gettysburg, and Bull Run, he learns the horrors of war and he sees sights that he never thought he would see.
The reason why I like this book was because of the fact that it is about the Civil War. I think that anyone who likes history and war would like, Soldier's Heart.
