(4) 4-6 A former slave, fourteen-year-old Samuel Washburn fights in the Civil War as a drummer boy for Indiana's first African-American military regiment. Despite the banal voice of the first-person narrator, the well-researched and carefully plotted novel is engaging. An author's note provides historical background.
