Summary: A MUST READ!
Review: Billy Brown has gone above and beyond in writing this page turner. He captures the reader by making them care for the characters. Once you start reading this mostly true story you never want to put it down. A truly excellent read, and I agree, it would make an excellent movie

Summary: more than given history
Review: excellently written with a first person point of view. Gives accout of these 3 young boys lives pre-civil war to the last. Greatly shows honor and pride of Texans, and chivarly of those days. Good history of how this war involved more than the white and negros for which most people really learned about it. Brings forth the great allies of indians both for the north and the south, most forgotten by history books. Would make a great movie or tv mini-series

Summary: BJ Brown........ Excellent Storyteller!!!
Review: I happen to know BJ Brown and was one of the first owners of his book "Once, When We Were Young", it is an excellent story, one that even women can relate to, about the Civil War. BJ spend many long hours researching the events that he writes about in this book which makes the story and the characters very life-like and believable. I recommend it highly!

Summary: ONCE, WHEN WE WERE YOUNG
Review: THE STORY OF A YOUNG TEXAS MAN WHO IS CAUGHT IN THE EXCITEMENT OF PRE-WAR FERVOR THAT PREVAILED IN THE SOUTH PRIOR TO ACTUAL START OF HOSTILITIES. THE AUTHOR TAKES THE READER FROM THE FORMATION OF LOCAL STATE MILITARY UNITS ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE CIVIL WAR TO THE VERY LAST BATTLE AS SEEN THROUGH THE EYES OF A YOUNG FARM BOY IN HIS LATE TEENS.I WAS IMMEDIATELY IMMERSED IN THE PLOT AND HAD A VERY DIFFICULT TIME IN PUTTING THE BOOK DOWN. AN EXCELLENT READ.
