Set during the historic battle for Gettysburg, The Last Brother is the tale of a young boy's struggle to keep his last remaining brother alive. As an 11-year-old bugler for the Union Army, Gabe is faced with heart-wrenching decisions during one of the most memorable battles of the Civil War. After losing his two oldest brothers, Gabe follows his 16-year-old brother to join the boys in blue of Pennsylvania's 71st Regiment, vowing to keep him safe. When Gabe befriends a fellow bugler for the Confederate Army, he finds that what he thought was so clear has now become blurred by friendship and compassion. Will he have to choose between friends and family? The beautiful, realistic illustrations combined with the rich story-telling make for a vivid journey into our country's history.
