War era reminiscences and crude humor from a damaged page
A collage of Civil War era sketches, poems, and reminiscences. It includes burlesque dialect vignettes about Southern and Yankee stereotypes, a deathbed scene of an Army chaplain, domestic verses on money usage, a long dialogue about slavery and race, military camp anecdotes, and a note on stamp duties and wartime taxation.
