Book Description
This is a delightful fictional account of two ten-year-old boys' adventures and escapades while living at home in rural Virginia during the War Between the States. They are innocent of modern day attitudes, and the story is sympathetic to both sides of the conflict in the sense that war is difficult for both sides involved. The relationships are heart-warming and real and the boys demonstrate budding character traits of honorable young men.

Book Description
"Will amuse old as well as young." -Chicago Tribune "Mr. Page, has, indeed, a very unusual gift of graphic and convincing narrative. To lounge in an easy-chair and listen to his personal reminiscences would be, one is inclined to think, one of the greatest luxuries in life....Mr. Page has been one of the prime forces in revealing the South to the nation and the nation to the South, thus furthering one of the most important tasks of the present generation - the promotion of a real national spirit." -Atlantic Monthly "It is a charming and sweet story of child life on a Virginia plantation during the war, recalling Little Lord Fauntleroy in the delightful and tender precociousness which distinguishes the portraiture of the boys." -Boston Globe "It is one of the best books for a boy's Christmas." -Wilmington News "A sweet story, charming and full of love of the South." -Charleston News and Courier "We pass lightly over the burning crust, the still glowing embers, allured by the skill and art with which Mr. Page avoids objectionable subjects and beckons us into the airy distances beyond by his humor and imagination....The characters in it are so natural that we see them and are spectators of their little drama...so truly, so tenderly told that tears come unbidden and we lament, not over the lost Confederacy, but over the lost lives - lives, like Dupont's, wasted in useless struggle." -The Critic "Mr. Page's two little Confederates are true heroes. Their trustful, confiding natures, and their zeal to aid the Confederates, lead them into some comical escapades, from which their sturdy manliness and self-reliance alone extricate them. Taken altogether the story is not only entertaining, but is significant in its graphic picture of home life in Virginia during the war." -The Athenaeum "A most natural, pleasing, and at times touching story....The scene is laid in a plantation in Old Virginia at the time of the Rebellion, and the adventures described are those of two boys who, though too young to join the army, yet come freely in contact with the excitement, anxiety, privation, and sorry which war entails. The result is a charming book for children, whether boys or girls." -The Nation "Thomas Nelson Page has done for Virginia what Hamlin Garland did for the changing west." -Dearborn Independent "It tells the story of two Virginia lads left at home on a plantation while the men went to fight. The youngsters have many adventures, serious and humorous, and get into trouble and out of it again. The story abounds in stirring incidents, and gives a very picturesque view of home life in Virginia during the Rebellion. It is an admirably juvenile book, teaching an excellent moral of self-reliance." -The Boston Saturday Gazette "Most delightful." -New York Times "The story is beautifully told, fun and pathos being equally mingled in its ingenious threads. The book is a handsome octavo." -Newark Advertiser
