Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is the address of former Brigadier-General E. W. Gantt, published in the midst of the American Civil War. Gantt details the Confederate Party's atrocities in Arkansas under the leadership of Hindman and the Johnsons. He describes a reign of plunder, oppression, and the loss of Indian territory, all while the Confederate leadership turned a blind eye or actively encouraged it. The author resigned his commission in protest and calls on his fellow Arkansans to lay down their arms and seek peace. He implores them to accept the futility of the struggle and the devastation it has brought upon the South. Gantt's insights into the brutality and corruption of the Confederate military in Arkansas offer a unique perspective on the conflict and highlight the human cost of war.
