 For 11 year old bugler, Gabe, the fighting at Gettysburg seemed like the end of the world. He had already lost two brothers in this war and he was not going to lose Davy. Gabe, diligently practiced all the bugle calls, so that when the orders were given he would be ready. In the midst of the smoke and cannon fire would he be able to sound the “charge”. His brother and the 71st Pennsylvania were counting on him.  (Pennsylvania Young Reader’s Choice Awards nominee, 2008-2009)
