When War Passed This Way is the story of the Civil War in the Cumberland Valley of Pennsylvania and Maryland as seen through the eyes of the community of Greencastle, Pa. This small border town was located right in the path of some of the war's major events such as: Union General Robert Patterson's Campaign in 1861; the Confederate invasion of 1862; Robert E. Lee's Gettysburg Campaign of 1863 and the burning of Chambersburg in 1864. Utilizing many previously unpublished sources, the authors have provided an in-depth look at how a civilian population dealt with adversity during this nation's most tragic conflict. Out of print for several years and demanding collectors' prices, White Mane Publishing Company has made this bestselling book available again, complete with errata sheet.

Three young boys rely on the help of their ghost-friend, Corporal Jared Scott, to solve the mystery of the ghost of a Confederate soldier that appears in Aunt Penny's root cellar.

This combined narrative and documentary collection is the most complete account yet published of the greatest battle that cavalry fought without infantry or artillery support in the Civil War. That intense struggle between approximately 5,000 Confederate and 8,000 Union cavalrymen, who fought mostly dismounted, comes alive through the many eyewitness accounts included in this study. On two hot days in June 1864, Major General Wade Hampton prevented Major General Philip Sheridan and his numerically superior, better-equipped troops from damaging the Virginia Central Railroad which carried provisions and war material from the Shenandoah Valley to General Robert E. Lee's army around Richmond. Hampton also kept Sheridan from joining other forces that could have attacked Richmond from the west. In turn, Sheridan kept Hampton from harassing the Army of the Potomac as it crossed the James River. Important for both sides, this battle of June 11-12, 1864, here receives the attention it has deserved for so long.
