Bluecoats, The #1: Robertsonville Prison By: Cinebook ISBN: 9781905460717 (48p.) (2008) Format: Softcover The Bluecoats is a humorous comic-book series starring Sergeant Chesterfield and Corporal Blutch, soldiers in the Union army during the Civil War. Our two heroes are captured by the Confederates and taken to Robertsonville prison camp, from which Blutch and the Sergeant try to escape five times. The camp commandant despairs, and Chesterfield and Blutch make a final attempt... Robertsonville Prison was inspired by the Andersonville prison camp situated in Georgia, which operated from mid-1863 to mid-1864. | ||

Bluecoats, The #2: The Navy Blues By: Cinebook ISBN: 9781905460823 (48p.) (2009) Format: Softcover This humorous series on the American Civil War centres around two cavalrymen in the Unionist Army: Cornelius Chesterfield, a zealous and devoted sergeant and Corporal Blutch, a reluctant soldier, highly critical of authority and who always tries to eschew yet another senseless battle. This highly comical duo does what it can to escape the often obtuse military mindset, absurd orders and the madness of war. In this volume, the Sergeant obeys the Captain for the first time and ends up in the Marines... | ||

That, however, means taking her along for Captain Stark's demented charges - a prospect that could drive anyone to shirk their duty of desert | ||

Bluecoats, The #8: Auld Lang Blue By: Cinebook ISBN: 9781849182454 (48p.) (2015) Format: Softcover Contrary to what you may believe, even the very martial Sergeant Chesterfield didn't always wear the Union's blue uniform. Both he and Blutch were civilians at the beginning of the war - butcher's boy and barman, respectively. So, how did they find themselves in the 22nd Cavalry? Well, there was a rather unscrupulous recruiting officer, a lot of alcohol, an overly eager young lady ... and a definite aversion for the infantry. | ||
