Publisher Description: During the U.S. Civil War Free Men of Color and Slaves volunteered to fight for the Confederacy, although in the beginning they were not officially allowed to fight many served unofficially, some slaves had no choice and were volunteered by their masters. However, all made a sacrifice and their names should be remembered. Some scholars completely deny that blacks fought or served the Confederacy but records prove otherwise. This book contains over 7,000 names of Blacks who served the Confederacy. |
