In Vincululis or The Prisoner of War - Hardcover

by Anthony M. Keiley (Author)

THE PRISONER OF WAR is Anthony Keiley's extraordinary story of his experiences as a captive confederate soldier while in two federal prisons during the Civil War. Union soldiers captured Keiley when Generals Gillmore and Kautz were sent to capture Petersburg, and destroy the railroad and common bridges across the Appomatox in June of 1864. Spawned by false depictions of the character of people from the south by the northern press, Keiley revised his original story in an effort to portray the atrocities committed against the people of the southern states by the Union armies in the name of liberty.
