Plow-horse cavalry: the Caney Creek boys of the Thirty-fourth Texas by
Robert S Weddle(
Book
)
4 editions published in 1974 in English and Undetermined and held by 203 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Robert S. Weddle weaves the letters exchanged between Americus Leonidas Nelms and his wife Minerva Jane--his maternal grandparents--during the Civil War into a narrative about the Civil War itself. He resists the temptation to make it a family story, offering evidence of heroism and self-sacrifice by those whose forebears served in the Confederacy. The Civil War story, from whatever angle it is viewed, is one of pathos, suffering, and tragedy. It is as much so when regarded in the perspective of the deserters and those who suffered unreasoning persecution for their Union sympathies as when seen in the eyes of the long-suffering and homesick Confederate soldier. The fact is epitomized in this study of the North Texas area, whose people were sharply divided on the matter of secession
