Paperback. Etat : Very Good. 2008 signed first edition, Brentwood Academic Press (Columbus, Georgia), 5 3/8 x 8 1/4 inches tall paperbound, 441 pp. Very slight rubbing, creasing and edgewear to covers. Inscribed and signed by the author at the top of the title page, with a notation - apparently also by the author - that the prior owner received the book for his birthday from his mother. It appears the author also penned in his phone number on the last printed page of the book, which has a list of the author's other works. Otherwise, a very good copy - clean, bright and unmarked - of this scarce work of historical fiction. Not in OCLC. ~SP03~ General Blaine Rayburn moves his Confederate Carolina Calvary Division down the long valleys of Virginia in 1861. Saddle up and ride along with the division.
