Musket and Shawwer Straps on a Civil War Raid
In the Meridian Red River campaign, foragers and regiments moved through pine barrens after crossing the Pearl. Sherman and Banks pursued enemy lines, destroying railroads, stores, and fortifications. Ivan Clermont, a private, finds a document from Richard Cecil that hints at schemes and personal vendettas influencing promotions and actions.
