Why read it?
1 author picked A Thousand Shall Fall as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
When you’re taught to believe the other side is full of evil people, what do you do when you come face-to-face with a gallant enemy? This story was fascinating because the heroine disguises herself as a soldier, only to become a prisoner of war. When her foe becomes her ally, her loyalties are put to the test. I love how this book deals with the “us versus them” mentality and breaks down the walls we try to erect between us.
From Stephenia's list on Civil War historical fiction for Christians.
