Book 201 of 500!

This book was called The War Within: A novel of the Civil War by Carol Matas. I got this book the same time I got the pacific war book. Obviously I loved this one because the Civil War and WW2 are my 2 favorite wars to read about! What I loved about this, is it followed a family in the South, who also happened to be Jewish. So you had this Jewish family who owned slaves and thought it was ok to treat them the way they did, but they were Jewish, the very same people who would be treated so cruelly during WW2. It was pretty crazy to think about!
