Richard Taylor

Opis

Written by the only son of President Zachary Taylor, this book is the story of the War Between the States and its aftermath as seen through the eyes of a Confederate General. When it first appeared in print, it was tauted by such leading Southern organizations as the Sons of Confederate Veterans and the Southern Historical Society as a valuable resource for future historians. Even the New York Herald described Taylor's memoirs as "the most credible attempt by a Southerner" to interpret the war.
