Easterner Johnathan Traver joined the Union Army to die a glorious,
crimson death. He feels a valiant death will liberate him from his
abusive boyhood. Yet in April of 1862, right after the victory in
the battle of Shiloh, he is still alive while thousands of others
have perished. Sergeant Traver faces a challenge; he firmly
believes they're fighting a modern war that calls for modern
tactics. Traver's new training techniques could change the course
of the Civil War, and he teaches them to his squad, company, and
regiment. But the army regards his efforts as seditious and views
Traver as a traitor. On a personal level, Traver's authority could
be threatened when he falls in love with eighteen-year-old Esher
Coley, a new recruit from the West. As they become warrior
companions, their focus shifts. A profound Civil War love story
that overcomes ingrained pain and heals old wounds, "Sweetgrass:
Book I" communicates a triumph of the spirit.
