Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Minor War History Compiled From a Soldier Boy's Letters to the Girl I Left Behind Me, 1861-1864
F you could look in on this scene you would rate it as about as I good a comedy as we ever took in at Bidwell and Marston's. I am writing on a rough board table, and right opposite me the fellow who has set up as company barber is skinning a poor victim alive. I don't think he is much Of a barber, and from the spasmodic and at times profane remarks Of the patriot he is practicing on, I gather that I am not alone in that Opinion.
