Reviews

"Descendant Fulfills Rebel Soldier's Wish. His revised Civil War classic published....." Read the entire article by Leon Alligood of The Tennessean

McAllister is the editor of a new version of Co. Aytch, the frank Civil War memoir that is considered a classic in the genre and was quoted several times in ...

"Sam Watkins' chronicle, including for the first time his own handwritten revisions of the original edition, is most welcome and timely." - Carroll Van West, Director, TN Civil War National Heritage Area & Director, MTSU Center for Historic Preservation

"Among the best known and most quoted Civil War memoirs is that authored by the irrepressible Confederate soldier Sam Watkins.  Annotations made by Watkins to his seminal 1882 publication will enrich and appeal to the broad constituency that has been long interested in Sam's trials, tribulations, and opinions." - Edwin C. Bearrs, Historian Emeritus, National Parks Service

"The only thing better than Sam Watkins is more Sam Watkins. This is a marvelous expansion of the best memoir of a fighting soldier south of the Mason-Dixon line we have."
Ken Burns, Filmmaker
