*I liked how they made lee seem like he was all but at the same time like he was about to die.
*I didn't know that the 1st section that i read in this 54321 was a dream.
*To be honest, i this book has alot of talking instead of action but thats just to me.
*I think they describe the setting on almost every 2 pages and its very descriptive.
*Ithought Longstreet were enemies.
Questions
*Since Lee is hurt why can't he just take a break, don't they have nurses?
*When did Longstreets spy get caught they never said it, they just hinted at it?
*I wonder if throughout the story are the only shelters tents?
*What does mean when it says'there was no hunger in the glassy chest'?
