More Treasured Stories of the War Between the States - Paperback

by Tony Zeiss (Author)

The intent of this book is to preserve an important part of our county's history. Each story featured here originated from eye witnesses of the War Between the States and has been passed down through two, three, and sometimes four generations. These, however, are the stories that the participants choose to pass on to their children and grandchildren. They are worthy of preservation in their own right, but more importantly, they present a vivid picture of what that trying time in our history was really like, from the ordinary person's experience.

Every effort was made to insure historical accuracy, but specific facts regarding the incidents portrayed in these family gems were often sketchy and incomplete. It is hoped these treasured vignettes, often the only link between twentieth century families and their ancestors who participated in the War, will be enjoyed by people who wish to catch a glimpse of that historic period.
