Author of "The Valley Campaigns" Being the Reminiscences of a Non-Combatant while between the lines in the Shenandoah Valley during the War of the States.....The incidents connected with the story are located almost entirely in the Valley of Virginia, a region that was a picturesque and important theater of Military operations during the four years of strife, and that suffered as much from the effects of the war as any section of the South. The trials, sufferings, and privations of the people who remained at home and were non-combatants are presented in this chronicle as frankly and as truthfully as possible; for the author has tried to be correct in every statement that he has made, and just in every opinion he has expressed and in every criticism he has advanced.

Also the Author of "Life of Turner Ashby"

The home guard of the South. Who bore the anxieties, the sorrows, and the privations of war with courage and cheerfulness, and who tilled the soil and raised the crops that supported the Southern armies in the field; and To; The Faithful Negro Servants Who remained loyal to their masters durning the war this book is dedicated.
