In Tall Cotton-182 “…grandfather of Civil War novels…” Confederate Hundred 92.
Attributed to the book is a supposed prophesy about the conflict to come, hence its interest in the Confederacy. Truly Southern in its tone.

(Interesting rear wrap where 15 military related manuals are advertised by West and Johnston. All $5 or less!).
