Download or read book Hunter Jones Joins the Civil War Missouri written by Jinx (Julian) Olson and published by Jinx Olson. This book was released on 2007-10-19 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What? Another Civil War Book? - Yes. But this one is different enough to capture a whole new generation and turn them into keepers of the flame. - The working title of this new book was: Huckleberry Finn gets sucked up into the Civil War. Like Huck, Hunter Jones is a precocious, wily pre-teen who gets in and out of trouble as easily as Mark Twin's Huckleberry Finn did. - The story opens as Hunter Jones watches his dad get killed by a silky riverboat gambler, as they get ready to switch boats at Des Arc, trying to escape up the White River to Batesville, then onto St. Louis and the safety of the north, just as the Civil War is about to erupt. - As an indigent with no means of support, he is tossed off the boat, chased by an alcoholic town sheriff and forced to hide in the woods, surviving the best he can, until he gets shot and captured by soldiers from the newly formed Confederate Army. - General Thompson tells him, 'If you are going to eat my beans, you are going to fight my war.' With that Hunter becomes a non-combatant in the Confederate Army - a drummer and step-and-fetch-it for the general. It's in that role where he gets kicked in the head by a mule and goes into a coma. Two old crusty veterans of the Crimean and Mexican Wars befriend him. Believing that Hunter can hear even though he doesn't respond, they read to him daily from old copies of battlefield newspapers. - With his fertile imagination Hunter dreams he is living the events that are being read to him. Even though he and his story are fictional, the sad details, facts, figures and events of the Civil War are historically correct. Through his eyes the reader will visit and experience many first that changed or altered the direction of the Civil War, West of the Mississippi: the first battle of the war, the first General to die, the first use of instant messaging (telegraph) in a war, the first use of metal hulled ships (ironsides), the first battle Ulysses S. Grant fought (and lost?), plus other first.

Download or read book I Acted from Principle written by William Marcellus McPheeters and published by University of Arkansas Press. This book was released on 2000-07-01 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the start of the Civil War, Dr. William McPheeters was a distinguished physician in St. Louis, conducting unprecedented public-health research, forging new medical standards, and organizing the state's first professional associations. But Missouri was a volatile border state. Under martial law, Union authorities kept close watch on known Confederate sympathizers. McPheeters was followed, arrested, threatened, and finally, in 1862, given an ultimatum: sign an oath of allegiance to the Union or go to federal prison. McPheeters "acted from principle" instead, fleeing by night to Confederate territory. He served as a surgeon under Gen. Sterling Price and his Missouri forces west of the Mississippi River, treating soldiers' diseases, malnutrition, and terrible battle wounds. From almost the moment of his departure, the doctor kept a diary. It was a pocket-size notebook which he made by folding sheets of pale blue writing paper in half and in which he wrote in miniature with his steel pen. It is the first known daily account by a Confederate medical officer in the Trans-Mississippi Department. It also tells his wife's story, which included harassment by Federal military officials, imprisonment in St. Louis, and banishment from Missouri with the couple's two small children. The journal appears here in its complete and original form, exactly as the doctor first wrote it, with the addition of the editors' full annotation and vivid introductions to each section.
