Book excerpt: North Carolina contributed more than 70 regiments to Confederate service during the Civil War, but only four of those regiments were permanently assigned to service in the Army of Tennessee.

This account follows the soldiers from antebellum life, to conscription, to battlefield, to post-war life.
