The Pride of the Confederate Artillery: The Washington Artillery in the Army of Tennessee Hardcover - 1997
by Nathaniel Cheairs Hughes
The compelling story of 400 men, their organization and service, their victories and defeats in over 40 battles. While the wartime experiences of the other four companies of the Washington Artillery are thoroughly documented, the exploits of the Fifth Company have been curiously neglected. This work illustrates the significance of the unit and its pivotal place in history. 21 halftones. 2 line drawings. 9 maps.
From the rear cover
In The Pride of the Confederate Artillery, Nathaniel Cheairs Hughes, Jr., illustrates the significance of the unit and, for the first time, positions this pivotal group in its rightful place in history. The Fifth Company, Washington Artillery of New Orleans, fought with the Army of Tennessee from Shiloh to Chickamauga, from Perryville to Mobile, and from Atlanta to Jackson, Mississippi. Slocomb's Battery, as it was also known, won repeated praise from every commander of that army. Although it sustained high losses, the company was recognized for its bold, tenacious fighting and was considered the Army of Tennessee's finest close-combat battery. The Pride of the Confederate Artillery is the compelling story of four hundred men, their organization and service, their victories and defeats in over forty battles.
