AS you can see with pictures this book is in good condition, is higly collectible is number 90 in the list of 200 CONFEDERATE books to own in tall cotton. I have researched for this book and you will be hard pressed to find another one like this, THE AUTHOR HAS HAND WRITTEN THE TOWN SANDERSVILLE GA. IN THE BOOK. I have found one other copy like this and the harvard unveristy library has it as this book is very rare to found no less it is in readable condition. And another copy on abe books web site for $850.00 also not in as good shape as this book.

Fiercely loyal to his adopted South, young Isaac Hermann, at twenty-one, joined the Washington Rifles which rendezvoused with the First Georgia Regiment near Laurel Hill, Virginia in 1861.

Almost fifty years later Captain Hermann was urged by his many friends to write his experiences while serving with three branches of the Confederate Army.

This list is based on Richard Barksdale Harwell’s "In Tall Cotton: The 200 Most Important Confederate Books for the Reader, Researcher and Collector" (Jenkins Publishing Co., Austin, 1978). These outstanding books are essential classics, a must for every enthusiast of the American "Civil War".
