<p>Praise for The Blues in Gray, edited by Roger S. Durham<br>'Lending additional value to the book is Roger S. Durhamâs talent as an editor and historian.' -W. Todd Groce, Civil War Book Review</p><p>'Roger S. Durham has provided us a book that stands out from many of the other edited collections of soldiersâ wartime letters and diaries. . . . Durham succeeds . . . in presenting a remarkably vivid picture of the wartime experiences of Dixon and his comrades.' -Christian B. Keller, Military History of the West<br>'Skillful editing . . . ample and abundant explanatory notes, identifying people, places, and events.' -Choice</p><p>'Brother against brother': this cliché of the Civil War experience is brought to life in A Confederate Yankee. Edward William Drummond served in the Confederate army while his brother Clark served for the Union. Yet these brothers came not from Kentucky, Maryland, or Missouri, border states where such conflicts were relatively common. Instead, Ned Drummond came from an abolitionist family in Maine. In1859, at the age of twenty-one, Drummond moved to Savannah, Georgia, and married a local girl; he joined the local Confederate forces shortly after the war
