Description

Early in the Civil War, 19-year-old Belle Boyd risks capture to spy for the South and her native state of Virginia. On the eve of battle, she races to the Confederate camp to deliver important information to General Stonewall Jackson. Thanks in part to Belle's courage, the Confederates drive the Federal forces from Front Royal, Virginia, and win a major victory on May 23, 1862.

Reviews

School Library Journal...
The narrator, Kate Fleming, has a melodic voice that changes smoothly to fit the characters. Teachers can use this production as a literary component to a Civil War unit, and research topics can be developed such as the non-traditional role of women during the War, etc. An excellent choice for school and public libraries to make students aware of the invaluable role women had during the Civil War.
