S. Harris's haunting, lyrically beautiful tale of coming of age in Civil War-torn Louisiana. Eleven-year-old Amrie St. Pierre is catching tadpoles with her friend Finn O'Reilly when the Federal fleet first steams up the Mississippi River in the spring of 1862.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith the surrender of New Orleans, Amrie's sleepy little village of St. Francisville amp;mdash; strategically located between the last river outposts of Vicksburg and Port Hudson amp;mdash; is now frighteningly vulnerable. As the roar of canons inches ever closer and food, shoes, and life-giving medicines become increasingly scarce, Amrie is forced to grow up fast. But it is her own fateful encounter with a tall, golden-haired Union captain named Gabriel that threatens to destroy everything and everyone she holds most dear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTold with rare compassion and insight, this is a gripping, heart-wrenching story of loss and survival; of the bonds that form amongst women and children left alone to face the hardships, depravations, and dangers of war; and of one unforgettable girl's slow and painful recognition of the good and evil that exists within us all.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Recorded Books, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47160911462640,"sku":"2940170676354","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940170676354_p0.jpg?v=1763715027","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940170676354","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
