Roster of Revolutionary Soldiers in Georgia
Mrs. McCall's roster of Georgia soldiers in the Revolution was compiled over many years. The work as a whole is cumulative, with only slight, albeit significant, differences in the kinds of information which may be found in one volume versus another. Volume I of this work contains the records of hundreds of Revolutionary War soldiers and officers of Georgia, with genealogies of their families, and lists of soldiers buried in Georgia whose graves have been located. Volumes II and III are also published by Clearfield Company. The arrangement of Volume II is similar to that of Volume I; however, it contains records of officers and soldiers not only from Georgia but from other states, many of whose descendants later came to Georgia because of liberal land grants. Volume III, the longest of the work, is similar in scope to Volume II except that the majority of the entries are for Georgia officers and soldiers, with only some material relating to other states. The three volumes, each of which is indexed, refer to as many as 20,000 persons overall.

In this comprehensive examination of the unit's composition, contribution, and postwar fate, Edward A. Miller, Jr., demonstrates the value of the Twenty-ninth as a means of understanding th...
The Soldier's Words
Since I began Civil War re-enacting in 1988, there have been two schools of thought regarding the uniform of the Confederate soldiers. One is that the Rebels were never ragged, that was just a romantic myth started after the war. The other school of thought is that the Rebels were always ragged and wore whatever they could get their hands on. I decided that the best way to discover the truth is by investigating, what the soldiers themselves said regarding their clothing through letters, diaries and memoirs. This book uses the soldiers own words regarding Confederate uniforms and includes many surprising anecdotes and some "firsts" regarding incidents of the Civil War.
