Author's Recommendation

With the scale and magnitude of the American Civil War, there is probably as much unpublished material in family hands, collectively, as there is published.
 
If we forget or deny our history and heritage we not only lose our identity, but we are denying the uttermost core and the very essence of why we are who we are.

Highly Recommended Reading: Storm in the Mountains: Thomas' Confederate Legion of Cherokee Indians and Mountaineers. Description: Highly Recommended Reading: Storm in the Mountains (Thomas' Legion: The Sixty-ninth North Carolina Regiment). Vernon H. Crow, Storm in the Mountains, spent 10 years conducting extensive Thomas Legion's research. In addition, Mr. Crow was granted access to rare manuscripts and privately held diaries, which adds great depth to this rarely discussed Civil War legion. It also contains rosters which is an added bonus for researchers and genealogists. Mr. Crow, furthermore, left no stone unturned while examining the many facets of the Thomas Legion. Crow's research is conveyed on a level that scores with Civil War students and scholars alike.
