Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Little Journey to the Home of Andrew Taylor Still
Major Andrew Taylor Still, who was surgeon to the tr00p of which Old John Brown was in command. The first time I heard of Doctor Still was from the lips of Major Pond. We were out barnstorming the one-night stands, and when topics of conversation ran short, the Major always talked about either Henry Ward Beecher or Old John Brown. (1 Major Pond had followed the footsteps of John Brown from Pennsylvania to Ohio, Ohio to Iowa, Iowa to Kansas. (1 These fighters for freedom had no commissary, and they took no prisoners. They lived off of the country. They were all pioneers, at home in the open, and even when alone were in good company, for they were on good terms with the stars, with the clouds, with bee-trees, deer, ?owing springs, raccoons, opossums, and the entire world of happy, exuberant, lavish Nature.
