Publisher's Synopsis
Description This is a story based on truth. It tells about the little army of around 300 boys and old men as they faced a Yankee Army of eight thousand men. The plan was to slow the Yankee's down by mini assaults along their march. The Confederate Army had to get all the men and cannon placed in Saltville to protect the salt works. There was assaults near Raven, Indian (Cedar Bluff) and Jeffersonville (Tazewell) which had to work to give Saltville, VA time. Most of the Confederate Army was with General Lee in north-eastern Virginia.
