A CONFEDERATE
SOLDIER'S COMPELLING
ACCOUNT OF HIS LIFE AFTER THE CIVIL WAR
Shelton, a Confederate soldier, recounts life in post Civil War as told
in his writings. A former prisoner of war, he returned to his hometown in
Alabama only to find a township in ruin and lost opportunities.
America's second biggest gold rush was underway in the Rocky Mountains.
With nothing to lose, he caught history's last mule train west
in search of gold and silver in this yet to be tamed and dangerous
territory. Annotated with a prologue, epilogue, appendage
and glossary. |
