Summary

Every memoir of the American Civil War provides us with another view of the catastrophe that changed the country forever. But this is one of the clearest and most informative ever put into audio.

As a commander in Stonewall Jackson's brigade, John Casler experienced all the horrors and comedy of the American Civil War. His time was not so different from his countrymen on the other side, with the exception of point of view.

"I was no secessionist and hoped the trouble would be settled without recourse to arms; but when the war came, I shouldered my musket on behalf of my native state and defended her to the last."

Drawn from his diary at the time, Casler recounts his experiences in the ranks, from marches and looting to nail-biting escapades and the monotony of life as a prisoner of war. Four Years in the Stonewall Brigade is a remarkable account of men in war, graphically bringing to light the challenges they faced on a daily basis.

Very, Very interesting.

For the war gamer or anyone interested in the history of this war this is a must; it will enlighten, entertain and embroider the knowledge already held by any reader.
Very well performed, which, as any listener will tell you is essential, no matter how good the story. Well done everybody concerned and especially Mr Casler for having faith enough to share his thoughts. MJN
