Anotace knihy

Covington Hang is the coming-of-age and going-to-war story of a sister and brother in northern Georgia during the Civil War. It is a portrait of a family, their neighbors, conflicting politics, and the men who reluctantly served in the Confederate Army of Tennessee.

In the spring of 1861, Ananias Covington, at age eighteen, is trying to be his own man. Against the beliefs of their Unionist father, he and his brothers enlist in the Georgia Infantry Brigade to avoid conscription. A competent soldier, he questions the South's cause and conduct of the War. He wants most to go home, continue his education, and marry his sweetheart. When he deserts to carry home his wounded brother, he faces a different war within the War.

His sister, Eliza Ann, is fourteen, the youngest daughter in their large family. Her war is at home on the farm, working the fields, defending herself from home guards and jealous neighbors, and learning more about life, war, death, and grief than she wants to know. When two of her brothers are murdered by Confederate bushwhackers, she finds the strength and courage to care for their bodies, help her family when they need her most, and take a chance on her own love.
