The story begins in March 1865 as Union troops closed in on
Richmond. Jefferson Davis tries to establish new capitals in
Danville, Greensboro, and Charlotte and is ultimately captured in
Georgia. Secretary of War Breckinridge dons the style of a pirate
to escape. Secretary of State Benjamin disguises himself as a poor
farmer--with his gold sewn inside his clothes. Nearly 60 primary
and secondary sources were used to research this dramatic history.
The book contains sketches made by an artist who accompanied Davis
on much of the escape, and includes maps of the escape route.
