Behind Rebel Lines

The Incredible Story of Emma Edmonds, Civil War Spy

De: Seymour Reit

Narrado por: Tavia Gilbert

In 1861, when war erupted between the states, President Lincoln made an impassioned plea for volunteers. Determined not to remain on the sidelines, Emma Edmonds cropped her hair, donned men's clothing, and enlisted in the Union Army. Everyone, even her fellow soldiers, thought she was a man.

But Emma wanted to do more. When she heard a key Union spy had been captured and executed, she volunteered to take his place. Soon she was a cunning master of disguise, risking discovery and death at every turn. Emma had fooled her own army, but could she keep her secret behind rebel lines?

So interesting!

This story was extremely fascinating! Me and my family had never heard of Emma Edmonds before this, but were fascinated by her story and bravery.

Inspiring and Entertaining

The narrator of this book was very entertaining. At times there would be singing and you could really feel like you understood Emma Edmonds life. I couldn't stop with me to it and heard the whole book straight through. I wish that somebody would make this into a movie.

Interesting and Inspiring

The story of all that this woman accomplished, at a time when women were thought of as little more than child bearers and house keepers, is simply incredible. It's a great lesson as to what can be accomplished when one sets themself to task despite what the naysayers think
