A Distant Bugle

By Aubrey L. Morris Morris and Roger N. Morris

Many of today's Civil War stories offer total fiction or cold facts of history. 'A Distant Bugle' is a powerful fusion of reality and drama as seen throught the eyes of Confederate Cavalry Lieutenant John Bradford.Lt. Bradford is the typical, young inexperienced backwoods 'soldier' who resolutely marches through scouting forays, bloody battlefields, harsh imprisonments, heart-thumping escapes and determined freedom runs with hearth and home as his guiding light. His personal triumphs and doubts form the background for his superior officers--'Jeb Stuart, a flamboyant, daring, fun-loving, hard-riding, self-promoting Cavalry General; Jonathan Stonewall Jackson, a stern-faced, eccentric, mirthless, complex, genius, and the vulgar, rude, whiskey-drinking, battle-smart Jubal Early.Rather than a bland spew of facts or an unrealistic gush of fiction,'A Distant Bugle' potrays the horrors endured by solder and family alike in this devastating war; and lights the darker side with moments of life's comedic relief.
