Review # 1 was written on 2012-08-13 00:00:00 Devin Moore A very interesting read, I had to keep reminding myself that this book was written in 1887. The thoughts and feelings of those living at that time in history is not very much different from ours today. Outside of a few alternative spellings and phrasings, the writing is not dissimilar to today's selections. I very much enjoyed this book. The writer was very unbiased in his writing and tried to stick with the facts seen through his eyes. He gave great insight to the lives led by the soldiers in the Western Army of the Confederate States. I recommend this book to anyone interested in the Civil War. This depiction gives a view that has not been 'celebrated' in other writings and gives some vision of how these forgotten soldiers helped in the war effort. |
Review # 2 was written on 2017-04-01 00:00:00 Chad Landen Book received from NetGalley. This is another reprint of an older book by Endeavour Press. I liked reading about the life of a Confederate soldier. This one was a soldier from Louisiana and reads like a journal. I have read multiple books of this type lately and I didn't enjoy it as much as I had hoped I would. I do like the fact that this publishing company is reprinting these books so they can be read by Civil War History enthusiasts. I may end up getting a copy of this for my own shelves for a reference book. |
