Appalachian Rebels by David P Chaltas
Appalachian Rebels chronicles the battles and skirmishes of the 5th Kentucky (part of the famed Orphan Brigade), the 10th Mounted Rifles and the 13th Kentucky Cavalry. Most of the one thousand strong compatriots were made up of men from the mountainous terrain of eastern Kentucky and surrounding areas fighting for the south. They came to the sleepy villa of Whitesburg, Kentucky, to enlist, knowing they were almost completely surrounded by Federal troops and those who sympathized with them. The only portal was through Pound Gap and an infamous trail known as Rebel Trace. Follow those men through Kentucky, Virginia, Tennessee, Ohio and Indiana as they dared to defy the odds and stood tall for close to forty-eight months, as America teetered in the balance. For the first time, the skirmishes and battles are documented in a timeline and recorded for prosperity. The authors have attempted to capture the essence of those brave Confederate soldiers struggle and have written about their exploits and plight in a sequential format. The reader can better grasp the hardships, trials, triumphs and tribulations of the band of brothers who the authors affectionately refer to as the Appalachian Rebels. RGB & DPC| SKU | Unavailable |
