by Harold Sinclair ‧ RELEASE DATE: Feb. 15, 1956
The base of this absorbing novel is the Grierson Raid when Union troops under Colonel Marlowe were given orders to cut the supply line to Vicksburg- a seemingly impossible venture into Confederate Mississippi. As it was done the elements of heart-break, of temper, of 17 days in a barren land, have a verisimilitude of first hand reporting. Outstanding among Civil War books.
