To little George Thorn and his animal friends, Evergreen Cemetery is their playground. Behind George’s family’s home, the cemetery Gatehouse, they spend countless hours playing tag and hide and seek among the trees and gravestones. But when the Civil War comes to their doorstep, they must find ways to work together to survive the Battle of Gettysburg. Join George, Finn, Fella, and George’s heroic mother Elizabeth as they bear witness to one of the most consequential battles in American history and President Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address.
