Beschreibung
The camp, battle, and prison experiences of a common soldier.
"The story is doubtless the most vivid record of a Confederate soldier's life that has been or will be written. [Hankins] gives in detail the most ludicrous events vividly as if a mature, gifted writer had kept a diary at the time, and his truly 'simple story' will create sympathetic interest. It is so devoid of bitterness that a man who served on the 'other side' . . . would sympathize with him in the hardships and privations of prison life and deplore that the government he served did not when it could render more humane service to him."--"Confederate Veteran, " 1912
John F. Marszalek is the retired William L. Giles Distinguished Professor at Mississippi State University and author of, among other works, "Sherman: A Soldier's Passion for Order "and "The Petticoat Affair: Manners, Mutiny, and Sex in Andrew Jackson's White House."
