Praise
Kirkus Reviews
"A grim, convincing, remarkably assured first novel about the darker byways of the Civil War....Price's story follows the struggles of the once-wealthy Curtis family in 1863 to survive one more year of war....Throughout..., Price brings an astonishing verisimilitude to the narrative. The salty, exact language, tough-minded views, and bloody deeds of these characters ring true throughout. [He] moves back and forth between the sufferings of the Curtis family and the experiences of their boys at the battle of Chickamauga....Price excels in catching the plight of individuals caught up in this vast event....[F]ew recent novels have caught with such conviction the true texture and profound emotions of that conflict." 04/01/1996
