Civil War. Casler, John Overton: Four Years in the Stonewall Brigade. Guthrie, OK, State Capital Printing Company, 1893. Small octavo, illustrated blue cloth cover, floral endpapers, 495pp. First Edition. As much a rogue as a rebel, and far from a model soldier, Private Casler pens the verité of camp life and combat and the harsh existence in Stonewall's ranks. His frank confessions of his service in the Army of Northern Virginia and his unapologetic recollections are among the most sought after and cited accounts of a Confederate soldier. Rare first edition in excellent shape, Fine.
