On a day that was meant to be filled with celebration and fanfare at the return of Captain Tod Carter, his family and sweetheart Sarah Beth feel a heavy anxiousness grow as the Federals set up camp in the front yard of the Carter House. "Our plan isn't to attack here in Franklin," a Union general assures Tod's father, Fount Carter. "We plan to move our men out as soon as possible to join forces with General Thomas in Nashville." But events change quickly. The war that once seemed a distant tragedy is now at the Carters' doorstep. Fate has dealt Fount Carter a hand of unexpected dilemmas. Should he move his family to a safer place or stay and wait for his son's return? Based on the true story of Tod Carter, the Carter family, and the Battle of Franklin, life once again is more unbelievable than fiction. Tod's journey is filled with hardship, struggle, and hope. The family and sweetheart who wait for him can only have faith and pray that Tod Comes Home.

War causes us to lose a little of our innate humanity, yet allows us to understand and better appreciate the humanity that survives.Nancy Gentry's "Tod Comes Home" exemplifies this both farm a soldier's point of view and from the families and loved ones that are unintentionally active participants and victims of war themselves.I shed many tears while reading this story. Although the story takes place during the Civil war, it allowed me to reflect on my years in the Air Force during the Vietnam War.Tod Comes Home helped me deal with some of my own Ghosts from those days. Human life is precious…the way we choose to live it…even more so.Nancy Gentry once more teaches life lessons through the vehicle of the Civil War…thank you.

Easy reading. Great for kids and adults alike. Sad ending but lesson taught was a good lesson for all to learn.

Loved it!! Mrs Fentry is a superb writer!!!!
