Perfect for you if...

You're interested in Civil War history told through the eyes of someone who actually lived it, not just read about it in textbooks.
You want stories about ordinary teenagers doing extraordinary things during historical crises.
You appreciate historical fiction that centres women's overlooked contributions to major historical events.

Maybe not for you if...

You're looking for a detailed military strategy breakdown of Gettysburg, as this focuses on civilian experience rather than tactics.
You prefer longer, deeply fictional reimaginings over accounts grounded in a real person's historical record.
You want graphic battle scenes; this is more about the aftermath and human cost than combat itself.

About this book

In July 1863, fifteen-year-old Tillie Pierce found herself caught in the Battle of Gettysburg, the bloodiest battle ever fought on U.S. soil. During this three-day battle in southern Pennsylvania, Tillie and other women and girls in the area became trapped. Without formal training but driven by courage and compassion, they helped care for wounded Union and Confederate soldiers, saving countless lives. Tillie Pierce: Teen Eyewitness to the Battle of Gettysburg draws on Tillie's own words to tell the story of one of the Civil War's most famous battles from the perspective of those who lived through it.
