Synopsis:

Out of print for almost a century, the candid memoirs of a Confederate private who fought with the famous Texas Brigade at Gettysburg, Chancellorsville, and Chickamunga have been a prime source for historians ever since they were first published in 1907. 20,000 first printing.

Review: "A neat tale of suspense ... an admirable piece of Americana."
--Atlantic Monthly

"Gives the best account I know of.... This Confederate Soldier shows his devotion to the truth by limiting his narrative to what he saw with his own eyes."
--Shelby Foote

"He was the G.I. Joe of the confederate amy.... He wrote so honestly, casually, and dramatically that no one who pretends to understand the Irresponsible Conflict can neglect reading this book."
--Houston Post
