Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Cavalier Our camp was in the heart of Copiah County, Missisippi, a mile or so west of Gallatin and about six miles east of that once robber-haunted road, the Natchez Trace. Austin´s brigade, we were, a detached body of mixed Louisiana and Mississippi cavalry, getting our breath again after two weeks´ hard fighting of Grant. Grierson´s raid had lately gone the entire length of the State, and we had had a hard, vain chase after him, also. Joe Johnston´s shattered army was at Jackson, about forty-five miles to northward; beleaguered Vicksburg was in the Northwest, a trifle farther away; Natchez lay southwest, still more distant; and nearly twice as far in the south was our hearth broken New Orleans. We had paused to recuperate our animals, and there was a rumor that we to get new clothing. Anyhow we had rags with honor, and a right to make as much noise as we chose. It was being made.
