The mostly true adventures of Homer P. Figg
When Harold Figg is illegally sold to the Union Army, his 12-year-old brother Homer P. Figg undergoes a mighty adventure to bring him back to Maine. From Homer's run-ins with dangerous swindlers to his assisting in the army's victory at the Battle of Gettysburg, this is one story that's the god's-honest truth...mostly. A humorous and poignant adaptation of Rodman Philbrick's Newbery Honor book.
