An action-adventure story for all ages 10 and up! Civil War is raging in America and fifteen-year-old Thomas Beck doesn't quite fit. He's neither black nor white, slave nor free, and yet, Thomas dreams of becoming a Yankee and joining the fight for freedom. After successfully sneaking into the Union Army, Thomas gets his wish, but he's a Chinese Yankee--different in looks and hairstyle, but not in heart. Finding himself unwelcome by either blue or gray, Thomas forms an unlikely friendship with a runaway slave as the fight moves toward a pivotal moment in Gettysburg.
