Synopsis

THE GUNS OF BULL RUN & THE GUNS OF SHILOH are the first and second novels of a series of eight published under the heading THE CIVIL WAR in four volumes. The two principal characters are cousins, Harry Kenton, a lad who fights on the Southern side, and Dick Mason who fights on the Northern side. The stories follow their lives throughout the campaigns and battles of the American Civil War between the Northern and Southern states. “Harry glanced at him. He was conscious of a certain cold tenacity in Dick's voice. He felt that a veil of antagonism had suddenly been drawn between these two who were the sons of sisters and who had been close comrades all their lives. His heart swelled suddenly. As if by inspiration, he saw ahead long and terrible years.” The series begins with the First Bull Run and ends at Appomattox, with each story focusing on different perspectives as seen by the two sides.
