Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Old Guard in Gray: Researches in the Annals of the Confederate Historical Association; Sketches of Memphis Veterans Who Upheld Her Standard in the War, and of Other Confederate Worthies
It is not possible in the limits of this book to give more than an outline of the military life of any one man. Where mention is made of the civil life of anyone before or after the war, it is merely put in as a record for posterity and to show what kind of men went out to fight the battles of the South as against the North.
