On the battlefields of the Civil War, the instincts of a warrior are awakened in an Iowa farm boy. "There is no tougher man on the field of fight," General Sherman says of this Iowan, and Nathan Chambers rises to the rank of Brigadier General. It's during the savagery of Sherman's March to the Sea, that Nathan's little brother comes to visit him on the front. It's Ethan who moves Nathan to remember that life is more than bugle calls, long marches and bloody battles. It's Ethan who reawakens in Nathan his love for the green fields of home.Ethan's Peach Tree is a glimpse into the lives of those men who followed the flag into the smoke and flame of the Civil War, and in the final pages, Ethan's Peach Tree is a poignant reminder that war inevitably claims innocence as a casualty.
