Civil War Primary Source research Historical Fiction

I linked up the Virginia Military Institutes archive home page because it provides easy access to primary resources. Not only that, but they have a page dedicated to the real life subject of a Young Adult Historical Fiction Novel called The Ghost Cadet (which I have read and enjoyed.) You can find this page by clicking on the side bar "Civil War & New Market" and it's about the second or third option down. I think that in teaching a young audience about the Civil War, it could be useful to connect it back to a book about a boy nearly their age who fought in it. This web site could help wiht that.

  Clearly, as it says here, the book is a work of fiction, which is why a web site like this, if one ever used the book to teach the Civil War, woould be incredibly uselful to supplementing the novel with factual information.
