Love and War: The Civil War Letters and Medicinal Book of Augustus V. Ball

Autor Augustus V. Ball Editat de Andrew Hillhouse, Donald S. Frazier

Ball's circumstances and experiences allowed him to glimpse the war through two sets of eyes, that of a loving husband, and of an increasingly disillusioned physician. The inclusion of Ball's medicinal recipe book is the first of its kind to appear in print completely annotated. Readers will find themselves educated about the medical and herbal lore of that era.

"Blood and Treasure: Confederate Empire in the Southwest "(College Station: Texas A&M University Press, 1995). This award-winning book explains the motivations behind the Confederate campaign in New Mexico and Arizona, as well as the conduct of the offensive and the causes of its catastrophic failure. An informative and entertaining prequel to "Fire in the Cane Field." "Fire in the Cane Field: The Federal invasion of Louisiana and Texas, January 1861-January 1863" (Buffalo Gap, Texas: State House Press, 2009). Beginning with the spasms of secession in the Pelican State, Donald S. Frazier weaves a stirring tale of bravado, reaction, and war as he describes the consequences of disunion for the hapless citizens of Louisiana. Winner of the 2010 Daniel M. & Marilyn W. Laney Prize, "Fire in the Cane Field" is the initial narrative in the Louisiana Quadrille series. "Thunder Across the Swamp: The Fight for the Lower Mississippi, February-May 1863" (Buffalo Gap, Texas: State House Press, 2011). The next installment in the Louisiana Quadrille series is a detailed narrative of the Federal land and naval raid up Bayou Teche and the contest for the west bank of the Mississippi. One of the great untold stories of the sieges of Vicksburg and Port Hudson.
