add to cart   close window

The article presents information about the book "Pickett's Men: A Fragment of War History," by Walter Harrison. This book is chiefly interesting as coming from a Southern hand. One is curious to learn the gory details of the war and to note the tone and spirit in which Southern writers will deal with war topics. This author is, very fair and his book has no literary excellence, as indeed not much is needed for such works as this, but from its frank style one takes it to have been written with no other aim than to tell truly the story of a famous body of troops.
