Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from How an One-Legged Rebel Lives: Reminiscences of the Civil War
My chief object in this work is to get something to support myself with - in fact, it is a scheme founded On food, raiment and shelter, which I find hard to come at by one in my situation, there being so few positions open to a man maimed as I am, with no more education and business training than I possess; but, nevertheless, I am no applicant for charity. I honestly believe that my little book is well worth its price, and I claim for it strict historic accuracy in all its details.
