Face to the Sun: A Civil War Novel (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781645381792)

Clay Miller joins a Mississippi regiment to escape the brutality of his father only to find himself in the even more brutal world of a western Confederate soldier. Through the trials of Shiloh, Murfreesboro, Chickamauga, Missionary Ridge, and every footfall in between, through mud, heat, cold, poor living conditions and often worse leadership, aided by the teachings of Transcendentalism and the guidance of mentors, he finds peace in war. He finds himself.

Meticulously researched and gritty in every detail, this is not a romantic tale of chivalry and honor. Face to the Sun is the journey of a foot-sore, hungry confederate soldier fighting to find the good in man and in himself.
