At the bottom of an old trinket-box sits a lump of lead?a bullet from the Civil War.
Behind it lies a story?the story of a young girl's experiences in the days surrounding the fateful battle of Gettysburg, which force her to examine her own heart, and show her the face of war in a way she could not have understood before.
"War Memorial" is a short story, approximately 6,500 words long.
Revised second edition
