(W/A/CA) Dash Shaw. During the Civil War* many Quakers were caught between their fervent support of abolition* a desire to preserve the Union* and their long-standing commitment to pacifism. When Charles Cox* a young Indiana Quaker* slips out early one morning to enlist in the Union Army* he scandalizes his family and his community. Leaving behind the strict ways of Quaker life* Cox is soon confronted with the savagery of battle* the cruelty of the enemy (as well as his fellow soldiers)* and the overwhelming strangeness of the world beyond his home.
