Customer Reviews

8th grade review

This book is written as if it were in the first person point of view of James Edmond Pease like a journal. Pease is a 16 year old boy fighting in the Civil War as a pvt. He goes through lots of different adventures, that are fictional, throughout this book while staying true to the actual Civil War. If you are in middle school learning about the Civil War this is a very good book for you!

The Journal of James Edmond Pease: A Civil War Union Soldier

This is a great book. It is about this Union soldier who thinks he has bad luck and has to keep a journal for the company he is in. It is exiting. If you liked The Red Badge of Courage you will like this book.

A MUST read!!

I really enjoyed this book. It was serious but enjoyable

Awesome!

James Pease goes to fight in the Civil War to escape conflicts at home. He shows brave acts and makes friends. Highly recommended.

It was great A++

I Loved this book. It is great. All the Dear America books are great. At our school the books are always checked out, and when they do get some in people fight over them. I would say this is the best out of all of them. Although I think that there should be a sequal to this book about his second jurnal that would finish the war. It does tell you what happens to him after the war is over.
