Description
Another hard to find book from Old South Books. It is believed that there are less than 20 copies of the original published book in existence. This book is a copy of the journal published in the late 19th century of W. W. Heartsill's time in the service of the Confederate Army in F Company of the 2nd Regiment of the Texas Mounted Rifles. Interesting point of view as Heartsill served in Texas as a ranger and dealt with American Indians, later to serve farther east in Arkansas, taken prisoner and sent north to Camp Butler in Illinois, released and attached to Braxton Bragg's command during the Battle of Chickamauga and Lookout Mountain. Also, includes the rumor that Robert E. Lee was dead in March and April of 1865.
