In Across Five Aprils, what is the main conflict? How is the family reacting to this conflict? (I need text evidence for both questions)

The novel's main conflict is the Civil War, specifically the way it tore apart families.

"But this separation, Wilse, it won't do. We're a union; separate, we're jest two weakened, puny pieces, each needin' the other." (pg.29)

"I won't fight fer arrogance and big money aginst the southern farmer. I won't do it." (pg. 45)

"Theres trubel fer fokes that stands up fer their reb lovin sons." (pg. 104)
