A must read for any scholar of the "Civil War," this book does an excellent job in detailing the work of the colporters and chaplains within the Southern Armies. W. W. Bennett was an eyewitness to the war and describes camp meetings, battles, and many hardships faced by the Confederate Soldier.
Readers describe this as refreshing and inspring:
"It is refreshing to the reader to see how despite the many hardships faced by the Confederate Soldier, God was at work amongst them. Mr. Bennett details many of the camp meetings where searching souls find their Salvation in Jesus Christ. I highly recommend this book!"
"You don't have to be a believer (even though it is inspiring) to learn from this text. The eyewitness accounts of the battles and so many young men's last words to the chaplains will tear out your heart and bring a tear to your eye. It also defines a major difference in the cultures of South and North in the way faith is observed. I really enjoyed this book."
