Buck, regarding General Cleburne and his command - a classics in Confederate literature. It is unquestionably one of the finest Confederate memoirs of the Western Theater.

General Patrick Cleburne was one of those rare civilians with little military training who during the Civil War developed unusual attributes of leadership both on and off the battlefield. He generated confidence in his judgment and ability and attracted men to him. His reputation as a leader, disciplinarian and fighter spread throughout the Southern Confederacy and was not unknown to the opposing armies of the Union. He was the idol of his command, a division - like its leader - unsurpassed for courage, energy and endurance by any other in the Confederacy.

Cleburne commanded the respect of his men, but he earned it. This extraordinary commander was truly one of the Confederacy's finest, most effective, most visionary, and courageous commanders. Buck provides considerable biographical data on Cleburne's pre-war career, as well as on his military activities. The book is both a biography of Cleburne and a history of his command. The services of Cleburne's units are provided with care and skill and Buck's book is one of the finest dealing with the campaigns of the Army of Tennessee.

There is a prior owner name and date (August 6th, 1914) on the front end page as shown, in pencil. There is no other writing in the book. I have no evaluated this signature to determine if it is to a Civil War soldier.

The pages have no smudging, stamps or pasteboards. There is a touch of foxing (more like yellowing that actual spots) to some pages, mostly those with the maps or those next to a map page.
