Charley Waters Goes to Gettysburg

(3) 4-6 Photographs by Dorothy Handelman. Charley Waters is eight years old when he travels with his father to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, to be part of the reenactment of an important Civil War battle. The first-person narration and clear photos of this accessible and interesting book bring the reader close to the material, which explores the history of the Battle of Gettysburg but focuses more closely on the avocation of reenacting battles down to the most minute details.
