Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Veteran's Story Dedicated to the Heroes Who Wore the Gray
In imagination, we View with rapture the grandeur of the scenery in the fair Virginia clime.
Awe fills our souls while he tells of the soldier life of Southern men when the snow and sleet had mantled valley, plain and mountain. He tells of the sentinel who stood at his post of duty for many lonely hours, keeping vigil while a weary army slumbered. Through the four year's strife, amid cannon boom and rattle of musketry, that sti?ed the moan of wounded and dying, the Veteran has taken us in story, showing the heroic endurance of the men in Gray and telling the greatness of the two unrivalled warriors-lee and Jackson.
