Born the eighth child in a wealthy Mississippi plantation family in
1843, David Eldred Holt joined Company K of the 16th Mississippi
Regiment in 1861 and served in the Virginia theater throughout the
Civil War. Late in his life, at a time when many former soldiers,
both Union and Confederate, were reliving their memories of that
event, Holt penned this memoir, recounting the idyllic life of an
affluent southern boy before the war and the exhilarating,
sometimes humorous, often terrifying experiences of a common
soldier in camp and in battle. This new paperback edition has been
expanded to include Holt's never-before-published diary entries
from the last year of the Civil War.
