Instead of its being a skirmish, it was one of the fiercest and most brilliant little battles yet recorded in this fearful struggle for constitutional liberty.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Thus wrote Durante Bailey, a special correspondent for the Chicago Times, in September 1862, about the battle of Britton's Lane, the culminating event in a military campaign known as Armstrong's Raid.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e This book emphasizes the men, North and South, who rode down the dust-choked roads and died in the unharvested farm fields on a summer day more than one hundred and fifty years ago. They fought and died, not in the glare of public view, but in a forgotten campaign in a remote area of the country . . .; however, their sacrifice was no less than any other person who fought in that sectional conflict. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 144\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.31 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 03, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51783037059360,"sku":"9781736152591","price":27.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/43c2e097c012f727bbcf00adf944b9d8.webp?v=1780578513","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/forgotten-campaign-the-story-of-armstrongs-raid-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
