Description
Willie might be too young to be a fighter, but he’s brave enough to be a drummer.
Ten-year-old Willie Johnston is too young to be a soldier in Mr. Lincoln’s army. So he joins as a drummer boy, instead. Part of Willie’s job is rousing the troops in the morning with his drum—the other part is being the last to retreat in battles. In this true story, Willie shows he’s brave enough to keep beating his drum, but will he be lucky enough to survive the war?
“Scrupulously researched and overflowing with evocative detail . . . Willie’s tale is authentic and engaging.”—Kirkus ReviewsG. Clifton Wisler is the author of more than sixty-three books, many of them historical fiction for young adults. His ability to bring history alive in accessible and engaging ways make him a popular author for young readers.Mr. Wisler lives in Plano, Texas, where he continues to work on his doctoral dissertation on the history of the Ninth Texas Infantry Regiment in the Civil War.US
