Journal of Rufus Rowe A Witness to the Battle of Fredricksburg

"I grew up in a small town located about halfway between Fredericksburg and Richmond, Virginia," writes Sid Hite. "I would have needed to pass my entire childhood with wax in my ears to avoid hearing stories about the Civil War. Thus, when I was asked to write a book for the My Name Is America series, I did not have to look far for my subject. Rufus's story takes place in some of the very same places that I spent my youth in and around Bowling Green, Virginia." Sid Hite is the author of seven critically acclaimed novels, including Stick and Whittle, which was named a New York Public Library Book for the Teen Age and a Smithsonian Notable Book for Children, and A Hole in the World, which is his latest book for Scholastic. The Journal of Rufus Rowe is his first book for the My Name Is America line.Hite, Sid is the author of 'Journal of Rufus Rowe A Witness to the Battle of Fredricksburg', published 0014 under ISBN 9780439353649 and ISBN 0439353645.
