Sam Houston & Napoleon Bonaparte Meet On The Civil War Battlefield: A True Story Of The Walker Brothers

This is a compelling story about three brothers who fought on opposing sides during the American Civil War. I think it really encompasses how the American Civil War not only divided a country, but also families. As detailed in this book it actually pitted brother against brother on the battlefield. The Walker brothers; Sam Houston, Lewis, and Napoleon Bonaparte, were normal men of their time trying to make a living for themselves and caring for their families. But as America expanded into the west and the country grew at an enormous rate during the early 1860?s they were thrust into a country at war. As with every American at the time they had to choose a side when politics dictated a split in the nation. And choosing a side wasn't always an option, because the war engulfed the country and effected everyone.
