Publisher Description: As the reader is sure to discover, the division between combatant and civilian at the local level is not always clear. With a natural curiosity to unearth the unknown, local Milledgeville author and historian Hugh T. Harrington has put forth a collection of tales and personalities that have until now gone untold or forgotten. Civil War Milledgeville shows that it is these often these forgotten events and people that have shaped our larger understanding of the Civil War. From a women's riot to a Confederate cavalry rescue, Hugh recounts local stories of heroism and cowardice, success and strife, which illuminate the history of Milledgeville. |
