thank you sir
this thread spurred me to buy some more Forrest books...I’m now reading the memoirs of his Escort and Staff by the professor from Motlow State (that’s founded by the Jack Daniels family for yall outside Tennessee).
the writer is refreshing
never realized how large Bedford’s “colored” contingent was and not just support troops
he actually offered freedom to those from his own farms who joined him
never gonna hear that from the Neo yankees here
I’ve read John Allan Wyeth’s “That Devil Forrest”. I’ll have to look for the book you mentioned. Any others you could recommend?
