Civil War / Rebel Private Front and Rear Experiences and Observations 1st 1908

Publication: Beaumont, TX: Press of the Greer Print, 1908. Almost precisely one-half of his pages, however, cover experiences later in the war in the 8th Texas Cavalry. Delightful humor and ludicrous incidents in camp mix with violent battle scenes, presented with unrepentantly strong ardor, to make Fletcher's books an unmistakable classic" (In Taller Cotton, 80).
