CONWAY, Ark., April 2, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- "Sons of War" gives insight into what it was like to be a pioneer in America, and also describes the action-packed battles in which the author's ancestors fought. Says Carl J. Barger, "I was inspired to write this novel because of my grandfather James A. Barger's Civil War record. I have all of his battle records."
The Barger family immigrated to America from Wurttemberg, Germany in the 1770s. Just before the Civil War, in 1859, his ancestors lived on a 100-acre farm in Missouri. When the nation was divided by the Civil War, three Barger sons, James, Jesse, and Henry, joined the Missouri 26th Infantry. Their struggles and hardships were shared with family and loved ones through the letters they wrote home from the battlefields of a war-torn nation.
The soldiers' successes and failures, their abiding religious convictions, and their dedication fighting for their adopted country saw the Bargers through America's bloodiest war. This historic novel covers the period from 1825 to 1912, a time of peace, war, and upheaval in American history.
