I read this novel as research for the new book and found it portrays a candid look at the life at home in the Civil War. Not only was the country divided, but so was southern Illinois to say the least. A majority of the locals of "Little Egypt sympathized with the south. Many wanted to succeed from the union completely. I recommend The River Between Us by Richard Peck as a good read.
