The Soldier Boy's Discovery, Bonnets and Bugles Series by Gilbert Morris and published by Moody Publishers.
Fifteen-year-old Jeff Majors faces one difficulty after another as a drummer in the Confederate Army. But more than the Civil War is giving Jeff problems. What should he do about Leah, his longtime good friend? What should he do about Ezra, that escaped Yankee prisoner who is obviously bidding for Leah's attention? At times she seems so stubborn, so totally wrong. See how Jeff and Leah sort out their problems and learn valuable lessons against the backdrop of the bloody Battle of Antietam.
