The 15th volume of a humorous series that does not shy from the horror and absurdity of war. A new recruit makes the mistake of asking Blutch to tell him about the infamous battle of Bull Run... in public! The hostility of the other Union soldiers is immediate, yet Blutch eventually explains the reason for it. That battle, the first major one of the war, which had seemed to the North like such an inevitable victory that masses of civilians had gone to watch it as spectators, ended in a complete rout. And Blutch and Chesterfield were there... Ages 8+
