The Silent Witness: A True Story of the Civil War is beautifully told and illustrated by Robin Friedman and Claire A. Nivola. As a child’s family plantation in Manassas, Virginia becomes a Civil War headquarters under the command of General Beauregard, readers learn about life during the Civil War through the McLean family’s historic events.
