Book Synopsis We Rode with Forrest by : John Rigdon
Download or read book We Rode with Forrest written by John Rigdon and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-05-12 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lieutenant-General Nathan Bedford Forrest in 1865, private of Cavalry in 1861. As Senator Daniel has said, "what genius was in that wonderful man! He felt the field as Blind Tom touches the keys of the piano. 'War means killing," he said, " and the way to kill is to get there first with the most men." He was not taught at West Point, but he gave lessons to West Point. His career was quite as brilliant and devoted in its allegiance to duty in peace as it was in the conflict of arms. Both Grant and Sherman feared this man who entered the Confederate forces a private and left a general. The stories of his achievements are legend. With no formal military training, Nathan Bedford Forrest became one of the leading cavalry figures of the Civil War. While he was without doubt one of the greatest leaders to come out of the war, the battles were fought and won by his men who were totally devoted to his leadership. This book tells Forrest's story in the words of his men.

Book Synopsis Nathan Bedford Forrest's Escort and Staff by : Bradley, Michael R.
Download or read book Nathan Bedford Forrest's Escort and Staff written by Bradley, Michael R. and published by Pelican Publishing Company, Inc.. This book was released on 2010-09-23 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most staff officers and escort members of famous Civil War generals have faded into obscurity. However, the escort company and staff officers of Nathan Bedford Forrest were held in awe by men on both sides of the conflict during the war and long after, and they continue to be held in esteem as figures as legendary as Forrest himself. Not merely guards or couriers, these men were an elite force who rode harder and fought more fiercely than any others. As Bradley writes in his introduction, In him they recognized not only the daring, able, and successful leader, but also the commanding officer who would not hesitate to punish with severity when he deemed punishment necessary. They possessed as an inheritance all the best and most valuable fighting qualities of the irregulars, accustomed as they were from boyhood to horses and the use of arms, and brought up with all the devil-may-care lawless notions of the frontiersman. But the most volcanic spirit among them felt he must bow before the superior iron will of the determined man who led them. There was something about the dark gray eye of Forrest that warned his subordinates he was not to be trifled with and would stand no nonsense from either friend or foe. Nathan Bedford Forrest's Escort and Staff reveals the symbiotic relationship between Forrest and his men, and how their unusual abilities as fighters, thinkers, and leaders made for a team of men who formed a unique brotherhood that lasted long after the war. A testament to their loyalty is the fact that the escort is the only Confederate unit whose numbers were greater when they surrendered than when the unit was organized.
Book Synopsis Notes of a Private in Forrest's Cavalry Corps (Expanded, Annotated) by : John Milton Hubbard
Download or read book Notes of a Private in Forrest's Cavalry Corps (Expanded, Annotated) written by John Milton Hubbard and published by BIG BYTE BOOKS. This book was released on 2016-02-02 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the American Civil War came, John Hubbard joined the Confederate cavalry. Early in the war he made this observation: "...one day I met a soldier speeding a magnificent black horse along a country road as if for exercise, and the pleasure of being astride of so fine an animal. On closer inspection, I saw it was Bedford Forrest, only a private like myself, whom I had known ten years before down in Mississippi. I had occasion afterward to see a good deal of him." Nathan Bedford Forrest, known as "Devil Forrest" and "the Wizard of the Saddle" rose from a private soldier to one of the most important and innovative Confederate generals in the Civil War. Historian Shelby Foote has called Forrest "one of the two true geniuses produced by the Civil War," the other being Abraham Lincoln. Hubbard was in the Seventh Tennessee Regiment, eventually part of Forrest's cavalry. He was an educated man who brought an articulate and sober assessment to the work late in life. He was not at the Fort Pillow massacre of black troops and unfortunately attempts to justify it. He brings to this work the southern unreconstructed point of view but not altogether. For less than you'd spend on gas going to the library, this long out-of-print volume is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones.

Download or read book We Three Kings written by Lyle Fugleberg and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2020-12-20 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's 4:00 in the afternoon on November 30th, a special hour in the history of Franklin, Tennessee. Three strangers, who are at an age planning for retirement, and coming from different directions, are thrown together by an inexplicable happening. They don't know what it means, are puzzled by the fact they are the only ones involved, and further confounded when horsemen appear who are amazingly reflective of Confederate cavalrymen. There has to be a reason for all of this, but unraveling the mystery isn't easy. It becomes a challenge that must be met, with efforts to do so leading to a riddle . . . a riddle but not a game. WE THREE KINGS weaves its way through the vagaries of the riddle, which are as clear as the fog that envelopes the area, until it arrives at not only a solution, but also the revelation that the happening might be the most significant in 2000 years. The solution is a call to action, an action that will commit the three for the rest of their days.
