Sam Postlethwaite was a Confederate soldier buried in an unmarked
grave in Rhode Island. Beginning with nothing more than a handful
of dirt, author Les Rolston's innocent curiosity about this
mysterious soldier's grave became a journey of thousands of miles
that eventually led him to the soldier's family. The result is this
factual account of Postlethwaite's odyssey and the author's
determined efforts to learn his story. Other important facets of
this affecting historical account are the experiences of
Postlethwaite's fourteen-year-old brother, who found glory with
Stonewall Jackson in the Shenandoah Valley; and a boy from a
prominent Rhode Island family who was emotionally ruined by the
Civil War. Both their families, embittered by war, were destined to
merge through a Civil War romance and marriage. This book is a
tribute to all of the people, Northerners and Southerners, who
joined together to choose forgiveness and understanding over
bitterness and hatred.
