Slocum’s hoping for the luck of the draw… A wanted man with no horse, a gun with only two bullets, and no hat to cover his head, John Slocum hopes with every passing day that he’ll be forgotten by the law. After escaping a close call with a lion and a rattlesnake, Slocum falls in with a different kind of varmint—a den of outcast Southern rebels. As he’s nursed back to health by the prettiest of them, Slocum learns that the rebels are planning a bloody Dixie uprising—and they’re going to practice by wiping out an oblivious Apache tribe.

This is an accounting of the experiences of the soldiers of Hardcastle's 3rd Battalion Mississippi Infantry from enlistment to the end of the war. It includes their mid-war incarnation as the 45th Mississippi Regiment and the role they played in Cleburne's fabled division during almost every major engagement of the Army of Tennessee. Told as much as possible from the point of view of the soldier, the book shows what motivated the original volunteers to join and continue fighting to the end.
