Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"An Undivided Union" by Oliver Optic and Edward Stratemeyer is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The book continues the adventures of the Riverlawn Cavalry, a fictional Union regiment during the American Civil War. The narrative follows Major Deck Lyon and his cousin, Captain Artie Lyon, as they navigate the dangers of war, particularly focusing on the challenges faced by their regiment as they confront guerrilla forces threatening their home and loved ones. At the start of the story, Deck is on a mission to help a friend when he learns of a potential attack on his family home by Confederate raiders. Joined by Artie and their courageous overseer, Levi Bedford, they hasten to provide assistance. The opening chapters showcase Deck’s bravery and leadership as he engages in a series of skirmishes against these marauders, ultimately revealing deeper themes of loyalty, heroism, and the harsh realities of war. The characters’ commitment to each other, as well as their struggles against both external threats and their own internal conflicts, establish an engaging and action-packed beginning to this gripping tale of courage and conflict during a turbulent time in American history.
