The Journal of James Edmond Pease |
Jon
How would you feel if your parents didn't want and to everyone you were considered bad luck? Well in the book "The Journal of James Edmond Pease" it talks about a boy named James who live with his aunt and uncle who didn't want him so he runs away and joins the Union Army in the Civil War.
James was only 15 when he joined, but he was able to get in. Nobody really liked him cause he was unlucky. One day in the confusion he charged ahead of his company and scared off all the Confederates single handed. After that, he became well liked by most people and soon rose Corporal. He showed his bravery when he spent a week in enemy territory. By the end of the war he rose up to Second Lieutenant.
I liked this book because it was suspenseful and I didn't want to put it it down. I recommend it to anyone who likes historical fiction books like the "My Name is America" series or learning about wars.

War Through His Eyes |
The Journal of James Edmon Pease
BY: James Edmon Pease The Journal of James Edmon Pease is a thrilling book. The book starts out on a battlefield. Private Pease, Lt. Toms, and other solders are the characters. Private Pease is brave, kind, and lively. He is brave because he volunteered to go and fight in the Civil War. He was also brave because he was willing to sacrifice his life for his country. He wrote a journal thinking there was a curse on the journalists when all of them had died. He is kind because he looks out for others, gives them necessary items like clothes and weapons, and helps them when he can. There aren't a lot of lively details but he sacrifices, gives, and helps. Pease takes us through various battles through his eyes and emotions. I wish this book would be have ended with Pease having a family of his own. |
