OLDER FICTION
Bruchac, Joseph

March Toward the Thunder

(3) YA Teenager Louis Nolette, an Abenaki Indian from Canada, joins the Union Army. His brigade, the Fighting Sixty-ninth (the "Irish Brigade"), participates in some of the most desperate and bloodiest battles of the war. Rich detail coupled with a unique personal perspective (Louis is based on Bruchac's great-grandfather) result in a fascinating look at the final years of the Civil War.
