In Seattle, the nuns told Mark the Civil War was about slavery.
In Independence, Missouri, his teachers claimed it was about states' rights.
Both couldn't be true -- so which America was lying?

When ten-year-old Mark Edwards moves from the Pacific Northwest to the heart of Missouri in the early 1970s, he steps straight into a cultural whiplash he never saw coming. Adults contradict each other. Textbooks dodge the hardest truths. And a tattered Confederate flag at an eerie gas station sparks a question he can't shake:

Why did Americans really kill Americans?

Determined to find answers no one will give him, Mark devours library books, interrogates grown-ups, and wrestles with dreams so vivid they feel like memories. Through the unfiltered honesty of a child -- untouched by politics, pride, or inherited prejudice -- he begins to see the Civil War not as a chapter in a book, but as a wound the country still hasn't healed.

Unfurled No More Forever is a raw, searching, and deeply human journey into the stories we're taught, the stories we avoid, and the courage it takes to confront the truth for ourselves.

A powerful read for anyone who believes understanding the past is the only way to move forward.
