About this listen

Johnny Madigan is orphaned, penniless, and just 16 years old.

He tells a Union Army recruiting sergeant he is 18 and old enough to fight.

But is he - or indeed any man - ready to be thrown into the horrors of the American Civil War?

On the bloody field of the Battle of Fredericksburg, as thousands of young men in both blue and grey are brutally cut down, the boy becomes a man.

And he is thrown into a man's battle.

Captured, he stumbles across a nest of plotters who could cost the Union the war. Can he foil their plot before eventually making his way back to the home he loves?

Flags of Our Sons is a meticulously researched adventure story that brilliantly recreates the drama, passion and terror of the Civil War.

It is perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell and Charles Frazier.
