Co Aytch (Company H) the non-Tennessee dialect is perhaps the best account of the Civil War in Tennessee and Georgia that can be found. Personally, I think there are none better and I have been reading Civil War publications for more than fifty years.

I don't care if you're from the North or the South, very very much worth the read. The hardships that the Confederacy went through, days without rations and supplies and clothing and shoes is unbelievable. The battles he fought and survived and lived to tell about it in his Memoir 20 years after the war very well done.
