Description

Private Worth's First Battle is a novel of the Civil War which traces the story of Jedediah Worth, a teenaged slave who escapes slavery and becomes a Union soldier, fighting for the freedom of his people.

To prove himself, Jedediah runs ammunition and even rescues a wounded Confederate, until he realizes his valor should serve emancipation. Despite having learned of his master's plan to free him, he escapes in the confusion of the battle of Shiloh. During his escape, he meets Samson, an enslaved African, a warrior of his tribe, who becomes his life-long friend.
