In 1861, brothers Daniel and Pressley Boyd left their farm in
Abbeville County, South Carolina to join the Confederate army.
William, Thomas and Andrew soon followed, along with brother-in-law
Fenton Hall. During the Civil War, they collectively fought in
almost every theater of the conflict and saw firsthand every aspect
of soldier life--from death and illness to friendly fire and
desertion. By war's end only Daniel survived. Based on their
extensive personal correspondence, this updated edition includes 30
never before published letters, along with new research revealing
additional family background and undiscovered information about the
fates of the Boyd brothers and other family members.
