Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Cheat Mountain, or Unwritten Chapter of the Late War Perhaps no greater injustice has been clone to any portion of the Confederate troops than to the officers and men composing the Eighth and Sixteenth Regiments of Tennessee Infantry, by writers of Confederate history, in failing to recite their memorable campaign in the mountains of Northwestern Virginia, in the fall and winter of 1861. The long silence of history, whatever may have been the cause, has induced the writer to make an effort to rescue from oblivion the heroic deeds and sufferings of those noble men. It may be true, however, that the real and true facts connected with this particular campaign or service have never been told, and hence the whole chapter, to call it such, is about to pass away unnoticed and unwritten. Over twenty-four years have now passed away since these two regiments made one of the most wonderful and daring campaigns over those mountains ever made by any troops in this or any other country. The soldiers who engaged or participated in these marches and great hardships are rapidly passing away, falling one by one, until but few remain to bear testimony to the sufferings endured by them and their comrades during their eventful struggles on Cheat Mountain.
