Title: Great read. Very insightful.
Product review: I just finished this book while flying on a business trip. My great great grand-father, Benjamin Franklin Golding was a private in Co. K of the MS 15th (Choctaw Grays) and being able to retrace his footsteps in such detail was really awesome for me. Time lines in the book corresponded exactly with his muster rolls from the MS Dept. of Archives which allowed me to know that he had been present at Champion's Hill, Shiloh, and Vicksburg, to name a few. Not written from a purely historical perspective, I was able to understand the feelings and emotions he and the other soldiers in the 15th felt as the war progressed. I thought this book was really well written, entertaining, and I enjoyed reading it very much.
