Judge John W. Stevens didn't care much for Yankees but he loved Generals Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, and John Bell Hood. He fought with Hood's brigade against McClellan's Peninsula Campaign, at Eltham's Landing, Gaines's Mill, Second Bull Run, and Gettysburg (where he was captured) among other clashes.His humor and colloquial writing will entertain, while his descriptions of battle and army life will inform in great detail.Stevens was captured on the second day at Gettysburg. After the war, he remained and unreconstructed rebel for the most part. We cannot understand America today without remembering and understanding the fiery emotions and issues that still exist today.Every memoir of the American Civil War provides us with another view of the catastrophe that changed the country forever.
