Where Grass Grows High by Nancy Glenn Powell

Where the Grass Grows High, contains history surrounding the Civil War. Samuel Glenn, (POV) born and raised in Georgia, striving to avoid the effects of anticipated conflict in the southeast and keep six sons out of battle, takes his wife and ten children to an Arkansas homestead in 1852. He thought Arkansas would remain neutral if war broke out—he was mistaken—six sons went to war. My great-great-grandfather Samuel Glenn's stories were passed down to me by family members.
