About this audiobook
John Jackman was only one of thousands of Kentucky men who found themselves lured to the cause of the South in 1861. Indeed, many had "gone South" before him, as the Kentucky regiments actually began formation across the line at Camp Boone, Tennessee, in July.
The Second Kentucky Infantry organized on July 13, followed by the Third a few days later. On August 30 the Fourth Kentucky was mustered in, and about the same time a battery of artillery from the Bluegrass State joined the regiments. In September Kentucky abandoned its stance of neutrality between Union and Confederacy, and forces from both sides moved into the state in the hope of taking it for their own.
