As America marched to war, brother against brother, neighbor against neighbor, a chicken was there. When a ship sailed into New York Harbor, bound for Ellis Island, a chicken was there. When women stood to be counted, demanding the right to vote, a chicken was there. Now, for the first time ever, the chickens who witnessed the events of the 1800's will tell their stories. Part historical fiction, part humorous observation, with sharp wit and heart warming innocence the hens and roosters who were there give their unbiased accounts of life leading up to the Civil War and its aftermath. Over the course of twenty-five short stories, these eyewitnesses to history will show you a side of America never before told and not easily forgotten. From the Underground Railroad to the Klondike Gold Rush, from the Statue of Liberty to the Battle of Manassas, a chicken was there.
